Regret buying
M4rkie86
I regret wasting $2.99 on this. The delay from screen to lights was nearly 10 seconds. It made the atmosphere/ambience completely out of place. Imagine a dark scene that's supposed to have blues and purples show up bright reds, oranges, and yellows. I was expecting a better than this. I want a refund as it's useless and pointless to use an app that doesn't work as its intended.
Developers non responsive

I love this app when it works! However, it rarely does. You can set it up and it works beautifully only to see that within a few hours or days the app has closed and must be restarted. I have contacted the developer but they have not responded.
Love it!

Very cool! Works with any movie or TV show. I have no delay with my Hue bulbs. My only wish is that dark scenes a would dim the light to darken the room. Great job team!
great!

This app works beautifully. I encountered absolutely Zero issues with my Hue lights. There is not much customization necessary, (it's pretty much plug-and-play), but what you need/want is available. I am so glad I bought it. Just watched the Martian with this app zoomed in on my TV screen. I am just so impressed there were absolutely no issues- it works & feels great! effortless and fun to play with . Just an extremely well developed & engineered app. thanks!!
Fun novelty

I do not find much lag at all with this app. I am using an iPhone 6+ with a gigabit LAN and an original hue base with 7 gen 1 hue bulbs and light strip. I agree with some of the other reviews that the lights changing all the time in the room can distract from the tv but is fun for some shows. I don't like that it does not drop the light to very dull or off during dark scenes. It holds the last light setting before the screen went to the dark scene. Hopefully they will fix this issue soon. I would think that should be easy to program. I am happy I purchased.
Best HUE tv sync app

App works very well. I bought all Hue apps. This has the most features.
Not too shabby!

Sync delay is approx 1-2 seconds, which is not too bad. The only possible issue that I see is a background/foreground color mismatch, where a character wearing a red shirt standing in a blue background causing the app to project out a vivid red back light. This is not the dev's fault by any means and I think this app is as good as it gets.
Best App for Hue Lights!

My whole family LOVES this app! It completely transformed our "theatre" room into a complete submersion effect with our lights. Feels like a $1,000 setup for just a few bucks and super easy to setup. Completely changes the way we watch movies (and tv shows).
Throw in pinch to zoom.

Just needs zoom. This is the app to get for your movie room setup. I like placing my box either in the middle of the screen since this gives you smoother transitions, but there are some times when I place a rectangular box capturing the top of the tv for a the scenes bleeding into the room. Works great with 1 ceiling light and a strip behind the tv. BTW you get to pick the brightness levels.
