Hue Thunder for Philips Hue for Negative User Reviews

✓ Fails to mention bridge requiredThe app may be good, but with no hue bridge, it doesn't do anything with your lights.Random836302Version: 2.9

✓ Could be betterIt’s definitely not a bad option if you are looking for a thunderstorm app but the timing on the lights isn’t the greatest and they are slow to come on and off (this could be a hardware limitation) and for 3.99 a bit expensive for how simple there should be a way to do a slider for how far the storm is like 0 miles -10 miles Also give you the 3D experience like on the main hue app you can put in where in your room the lights for audio sync that would be a good addition to this app to make it worth the 3.99.Zack DunpheyVersion: 2.9

✓ Doesn’t work the second timeWorked fine when I downloaded it, very next day it tries to reconnect to his hub that is saved and can’t. Every thing else still works so it’s not the hub..JakeW10Version: 2.7

✓ LightningThis app is good but it would be excellent if the lightening was more sporadic and flickered the light rather than just coming on white for 5 seconds and turning off. Sounds are very good though, rain, thunder and animals/birds are spot on, just let down by the lightning..Jersey AndyVersion: 2.9

✓ Could be betterThorlight does good for around same price. Not much control in these apps. More of you get what it does not so much how you’d like..$.01Version: 1.5.1

✓ Way way over soldThis wasn’t anything like the ads. It was really lame to be honest and I have Hue all over the house. It could have been better by far. Don’t waste your money. I’d be embarrassed entertaining friends with this..Down for the adsVersion: 3.0

✓ Good but won’t stay onI keep trying to use this to go to sleep but every time I set the timer it goes off way before its suppose to then I look at my phone and the app has to boot back up.Kik MomVersion: 1.31

✓ Okay, but poor timerNice app, but does have a downside. The timer function is very hit and miss. I've tried it a few times but only had it work for me once, so very unreliable which for me let's this app down..Lew-clarke93Version: 2.5

✓ Okay for a little while…These collection of soundscapes are decent at best. Just don’t run them for extended period of time (greater than 2 hours, not sure exactly how long). After which something controlling the lights freezes, but the sounds keep playing. At which point any HomeKit lights are all placed in the default room, and given the names of default hue light. A work around I have discovered is to open the Hue (official app) and sync Hue with HomeKit. It’ll give an error saying already synced or already exists. Down side being you’ll have to group your lights again..ArcticThunderVersion: 2.9

✓ Works, Neat for a while, Creates “phantom” light that shows in other apps.App is pretty neat. The effects are cool with a Bluetooth speaker so the sound is more full. It was fun for 5-10 mins but the novelty wore off quickly. The app created a “phantom” room or entertainment area or something on the hue bridge called “ThunderG” which I can find no way to remove. It appears on all Hue-supporting apps (including on our Vivint panel… annoying) except the official Hue app. I can find no way to delete it except completely factory resetting the Hue hub. Worst of all somehow the ThunderG room has been turning on randomly during the day for us despite it not being used in our automations. This continues to happen even after removing the app from my phone so I don’t think it’s specific to the app itself, but it certainly never happened until we tried this app… Now I’ve got to figure out how to fix it because we keep getting woken up at 3am when the lights turn on..B9222Version: 2.9

✓ Needs Smart BridgeThis does not work with Bluetooth Hue Bulbs alone, you need the Hue Bridge. This was not in the description..MozekVersion: 3.0

✓ Cool, but non-essentialVery cool effects, but absolutely insane battery drain. Ended up deleting..HezelepsyVersion: 1.5.1
