Hello, as Hue is now supporting Matter I’ve played around with it today. Unfortunately, I am a little bit lost. Maybe somebody can provide some guidance. I’ve activated Matter in the Hue app I see the code to couple the Hue bridge in the app, but what now? In my Homey Pro 23 I am using the Hue a…

Ok! So you have to build seperate mesh networks per brand? Hue matter hub and Aqara matter hub don’t communicate?

Short update on my Hue+Matter issues: With the newest firmware 10.2.1 I was able to add my Hue devices via Matter. A first round of testing went well. Responsiveness is much faster (which was expected due to the non-existing 2s polling delay). I’ve encountered that temperature readings from the moti…

Hue motion sensors temperature readings missing decimal places Hue are missing the decimal places I did my migration today also on 10.2.1 and see the same for temperature but luminance is fine. I will upgrade to Experimental updates and see if it is the same for v10.3.x Question: did you re…

No, I did not re-install the Hue app. In fact I did not touch the Hue app at all. I did removed all devices that I do not need to control through the Hue app anymore afterwards. I know that in the forum it is recommended to deinstall the Hue app, add then Hue devices through Matter, and then add dev…
