What's Philips Hue + Spotify?
With Philips Hue + Spotify, you can have your smart lights dance along to your favorite music via Spotify. This makes it feel like you're in a night club, even though you're at home on the couch. If you connect the Hue app to your Spotify account, the app collects data of all your music. This allows the app to adjust the atmosphere to what you're listening to. From romantic mood lighting with your favorite ballad to bright flashing lights during that song that makes everyone's hands go up.
Set your lights entirely according to your own liking
At first, the Hue app selects the lighting that matches your music. Luckily, you can easily adjust everything to your own liking. That way, you can choose your own color palette and set the intensity of the lighting according to your mood. You can do all of this via the Hue app.
What do you need?
You'll need Philips Hue smart lights to start. These have to be connected to a Hue bridge, because they won't work without. The bridge is the connector between the Hue lights and the Hue app on your phone. Philips Hue + Spotify only works with colored smart lights, not with the White and White Ambiance lighting. You'll also need a Spotify app. A Premium account isn't necessary.
