Pair Philips Hue with IFTTT and create complex automations that let your smart devices work together.
Philips Hue and IFTTT
Powerful automations for smart homes
Smart devices, unite! Pair your Philips Hue lights with IFTTT to make your lights respond to the happenings in and around your home.
Let your lights react
When one thing happens, your lights tell you — that’s how IFTTT works. Is it raining? Let your lights turn blue! Got enough sleep? Your lights will brighten as soon as you hit those eight hours.
Make a grand entrance
Let your location control your lights! As you arrive home, your phone lets your lights know you’re close and turns them on to your chosen settings.
Get IFTTT
Find the applets, services, and integrations that make your life easier — and smarter.
