Hands full? Ask Google Assistant to turn on the light.

“Hey Google, turn off all lights.”

Dim the lights hassle – and hands! – free

Whether you want a dimmed nightlight or a bright daytime setting, your Assistant can help.

“Hey Google, dim the lights.”

“Hey Google, dim the lights in the living room to 40%.”

“Hey Google, brighten the bedroom light by 20%.”

Paint the walls with light

Let your Assistant change your surroundings to fit your mood.

“Hey Google, turn the lights purple.”

“Hey Google, set the bedroom to warm white.”
“Hey Google, set my kitchen light to green.”

What colours can I use?

Preset light scenes for every mood

Created by lighting professionals, there is a light scene for every moment.

“Hey Google, set Spring Blossom in the kids’ room.”

"Hey Google, turn off Soho in the kitchen.”

“Hey Google, set the living room to the Chinatown light scene.”

Get the most out of your daily activities

These light recipes are scientifically proven to be the best light for your everyday routine.

“Hey Google, turn on Read in the family room.”

“Hey Google, set the desk lamp to Concentrate.”

“Hey Google, set Relax in the living room.”

“Hey Google, turn the bathroom lights to Energise.”

Gentle Sleep and Wake

Slowly fade off your Hue lights before bedtime and wake up gently with a sunrise effect before your morning alarm. All with the help of your Google Assistant smart speaker or Google Home device .

Gentle Wake Up

Wake up every morning with your personal sunrise. Just say, “Hey Google, turn on Gentle Wake Up”. Then every time you set a morning alarm with your Google Assistant speaker⁴, your lights will gradually start to brighten 30 minutes before your alarm to help to wake you up smoothly, instead of pulling you abruptly out of your slumber.

Sleep my lights

A great night’s sleep starts with setting the right ambiance in your home. Warm, sunset-like shades of white light before bed time can help your sleeping routine. Simply say, “Hey Google, sleep my lights” to start dimming your lights for the next 30-minutes until they’re off.
