Just wondering how the community connects their lights to Homey now that you can use matter. Do you make two different accounts for your two bridges in Hue, and then integrate these two bridges to Homey, or just add everything directly to Homey though matter? Would be so lovely to add the two Hue bridges to one Hue account. ---

Be aware Matter still is very beta ---

As long as Signify insists on compulsory registration for the activation of the Matter protocol and the new Homey Phillips Hue app (v6.0) supports the “new” HueAPI v2, I see no reason/advantage to switch to Matter. Because for me, “My home is my castel” still applies and it’s none of Signify’s business what happens in my home. ---

Thanks for your reply. I will not mess with matter then. Not yet anyways. The smartest thing would be to make 2 hue account’s, add the two bridges and intigrate them both to the Homey Pro? It is so weird Signify haven’t made this easier for Hue home owners. If you have 120 lights you will need to make multiple accounts and toggle between them… ---

If you search you will find, simply enter “Multiple Hue bridges”, then you will find enough information on this topic in the community. > [@Multiple Hue Bridges / Creating Groups](https://community.homey.app/t/multiple-hue-bridges-creating-groups/79507): > > We’re new to the game, even more so, on the verge of ordering homey pro 2023. One important information we could not found is wether when we connect two Hue Bridges (or even more in the future) will be able to group lights from different bridges on homey? We need to create a group consisting of all lights in the home, so far with just the bridges and using google home there was no way to do this for us. And I guess, when we connect more than one bridge, it would be a good idea to set different… ---

Yes I understand I can import the bridges to Homey and make groups and zone from there. But how exactly do I connect two bridges to the Hue app if not two different accounts, could not find an answer I could understand, only that it’s possible. ---

I have two Hue Bridges for Inside and Outside lights and had these setup with two Hue Accounts which enabled my old SmartThings hub to control all my lights. Recently Philips Hue added a feature to their App which enabled multiple Hue Bridges to be used with a single Hue Account. So, I merged my two accounts and now find that when I add a new Hue device in Homey I get to choose which Bridge (named Inside or Outside in my case) is used. ---

Homey Pro 2023 using the official Hue App, not via Matter. I plan to replace both Hue Bridges with the new Hue Bridge Pro just as soon as Philips enable the import of multiple Bridges
