I am not a Homey newbe but new to Philips Hue. I bougt a lamp and an outdoor sensor, installed the Hue app (3.0.11 beta) at my Homey, and thought that I could pair both to Homey without using a Hue Bridge. Trying to install both devices the Hue app only gives “no bridge found” as response. So I could not pair any device at all. What is going wrong, or what am I doing wrong? ---

There are two Hue apps: - [this one](https://apps.athom.com/app/com.philips.hue.zigbee), which can be used to pair Hue devices with Homey directly - [this one](https://apps.athom.com/app/nl.philips.hue), which requires a Hue bridge I think you installed the wrong app. ---

Hi Robertklep, You are completely right! I was not aware of an alternative app. Thanks!
