Anyone knows how long this takes? If this takes to long Iam thinking to remove the app and re add it and all the lights again. (If someone knows if this works) because i get complains from my wife. ---

The update should prevent that the hue app crashes in an unsupported event. I sill see that the app crashes a lot. Hope this has to do with the bridge pro in my system and that after the next update this problem vanishes. ---

My wife already said if it’s possible to remove Homey as it always has problems with lights… I know it isn’t always, but 2 weeks now that the front- & rear garden lights don’t work anymore like she was used to. And I’m glad I didn’t migrate the house lights at first, otherwise Homey already was removed from the house 😉 ---

No, it doesn’t work at all with the Hue pro… :-(. So re-adding them by hand won’t work for you ---

I was able to add the new hue hub pro to homey with matter, it doesn’t work with the app and doesn’t need it either. I can also control rooms and zones directly, which wasn’t possible with the app (huge limitation). ---

When we do release it, the update will be available for Homey (2016–2019), Homey Pro (Early 2023), and Homey Pro mini. The update will most likely be pushed to the testing channel tomorrow. Please note that this is not a stable release, bugs are to be expected. If you want to be certain everything works reliably, it’s best to wait for the stable release. So i guess be patient ---

> [@Raymirk](#): > > because i get complains from my wife. Oh my… but that’s unacceptable! Thank you so much for letting us know. I just heard Enschede NL is on high alert, the Athom B.V. board decided to prioritise the updating of the Hue app over all other activities, all holidays were cancelled and even the Sales dept is writing code as we speak. ---

I don’t understand why people start using new stuff without checking if it’s supported. No the app for Philips Hue is not finished. I can understand that. I rather have a good release from this important app, than have it yesterday full of bugs. No Philips does not YET support migration from two or more old bridges to the new pro. So you have to decide to wait or do it all manually. Don’t start without checking and start complaining. Please! ---

Iam not complaining , i know its my fault. I only wanted to know if someone knows how long. Also i also want to do it manualy but everyone said only with matter. So also that is my own fault. And also i dont want priority, but only when. If someone says tommorrow and look then and see nothing, then i ask. So for development, dont rush.better good than fast. And for the rest keep it positive. I only wanted to say something to my wife indication. That is not possible so she have to deal with it also. So sorry for the inconvenience.
