Hi Marieke,

Do you mean the normal [Hue Dimmer Switches](https://www.philips-hue.com/nl-be/p/hue-dimmer-switch--nieuwste-model-/8719514274617) you can stick on the wall or do you mean the [Hue Wall Switch Modules](https://www.philips-hue.com/en-gb/p/hue-philips-hue-wall-switch-module/8719514318045) you place behind a normal wall switch?

Hi Jannick,

Oops. I was talking about the Hue wall switches and I thought you were talking about the wall switches too. Thanks for noticing. Do you have a wall switch and did you manage to pair it with the new Homey?

I managed to add it using the official Philips Hue Bridge and the Athom Philips Hue integration. But the Homey polls the Hue Bridge each 2 seconds and that results in bulbs responding slow when triggering the Wall Switch Module.

Hopefully Athom fixes this soon!

The Hue (without bridge) app for Homey recently started supporting the Hue Wall Switch Module. I’m now trying to get the wall switch to also work for dimming of lights. The app allows you to set-up flows for ‘pressed’, ‘released’, ‘hold’ and ‘released after hold’. Anyone managed to set-up a flow that lets you dim up/down when holding the switch?

Or any other way of getting it to dim lights, without a Hue Bridge?
