Couple of weeks ago I wanted to change the intensity of the light bulb. I open the hue app and it tells me to download the new app, not allowing me to do anything else. I install the new app and it asks me to register.... I still have my bulb at full light :D I'll either find a compatible open source app or a light bulb that respect my privacy, I got a couple of tplink ones which were cheap and seems to work ok
me over here switching it on and off like a neanderthal from the 1910s
I don't use them for on/off but to set the intensity, I guess I could get one of those manual sliders...
