Hue Tap Switch Mini White

A Hue tap dial switch can control up to three Rooms, a Zone or even your entire smart lighting setup. It's up to you! Each button can be configured independently of each other, for ultimate flexibility. Additionally, the dial can be set to dim up or down yet another group of lights. If you prefer to control only a subset of lights within a Room, we recommend first creating a Zone out of them, to get the most flexibility in terms of creating and selecting scenes for them

A Hue smart button can control up to two Rooms, a Zone or even your entire smart lighting setup. It's up to you! If you prefer to control only a subset of lights within a Room, we recommend first creating a Zone out of them, to get the most flexibility in terms of creating and selecting scenes for them

The Hue dimmer switch, smart button and tap dial switch can be configured to different modes of operation, depending on your needs. For example, you can set it to trigger different scenes based on the current time of the day, cycle through your favourite scenes on repeated presses, turn on always the same scene, turn some or all lights in your setup off or even start/stop automations. You can configure these via the Hue app. 

The dimmer switch features two dedicated buttons for dimming up and down, whereas the tap dial switch can do this by rotating the dial. The smart button dims up/down by long pressing the button; once you reach the min or max/ brightness, release and long press again to dim in the opposite direction

You can add a Hue dimmer switch, smart button or tap dial switch to your setup by going to the Hue App > Settings > Devices and tapping on the + button

No. The Hue dimmer switch, smart button or tap dial switch are battery powered and wireless, so you won't have to do any rewiring.

The old version of the dimmer switch (it has separate on and off buttons compared to the current version) used a CR2450 battery; the current version of the dimmer switch, the smart button and the tap dial switch all use a CR2032 battery

Via the Hue app you will find details about the expected lifetime of the current batteries.

There are minor mechanical and finishing differences, and the labels and default behaviour of the top and bottom buttons are different. The old Hue dimmer switch had a dedicated on button on the top and off button on the bottom, whereas the current version has an on/off button for toggling lights on the top and a Hue button on the bottom. All buttons in either version of the Hue dimmer switch can be configured with the same set of functionalities.

In case you want to restore the default configuration of the Hue dimmer switch, smart button or tap dial switch, or if trying to remove undesired behaviours, navigate to the edit screen of your device and tap on the Reset button. If issues persist, consider deleting the switch from the Hue app and resetting the device physically by pressing the setup button/pinhole for more than 10 seconds and then re-adding it via the Hue app.

Yes. You can set up a Hue dimmer switch, smart button or tap dial switch to control your outdoor Hue lights via the Hue app. However, they are rated for indoor use, so be sure to only use them inside.

No. A Hue bridge is required to be able to change the way a Hue dimmer switch, smart button or tap dial switch controls your lights

The only difference is the mount that the Tap dial switch comes with. The mini mount is a small, circular mount that sits directly behind the switch. You can't see it when the Tap dial switch is mounted on it, so it's a more discreet mount.

A Hue dimmer switch can control up to two Rooms, a Zone or even your entire smart lighting setup. It's up to you! Although the buttons are configured by default to control the same groups of lights, you can edit the settings to control different lights per button. If you prefer to control only a subset of lights within a Room, we recommend first creating a Zone out of them, to get the most flexibility in terms of creating and selecting scenes for them

Attach the wall plate or mounts to any flat surface using the included adhesive backing or screws (if available). You can also remove them from their wall plate or mounts and use them anywhere in your home or attach them to any magnetic surface. Make sure that these locations are within range of your setup

Buttons on your Hue dimmer switch, smart button or tap dial switch have the smart on/off option to toggle lights. If enabled, when pressing the button the lights will be turned off if they were previously on, or will go to the appropriate scene depending on the mode if they were previously off.

Yes! Their buttons can be configured to either trigger lights or automations. If selecting automations, you will be allowed to start and/or stop any of your automations that can be manually activated via the app. For example, you can configure button two of your Hue tap dial switch in the bedroom to start your go to sleep automation, or your Hue smart button by your front door to start the mimic presence automation whenever you go out

We recommend a Hue bridge to customise how you can control your lights, as well as the Hue app and at least one Hue light (sold separately). If you don't have a bridge, you can connect these switches to up to 10 lights
