When connected to assistants such as Alexa, Google or Siri, you can control Philips Hue smart lighting with just your voice. Certain Philips Hue devices can also be linked to Spotify and synced to your favourite music to set the ultimate mood. The Philips Hue Play HDMI Sync Box can even be used to mirror the lighting of movies and TV shows for a remarkable home cinema experience.

Install the Philips Hue Bluetooth app. Open the app and tap "Get started". When the app asks you if your lights are Bluetooth compatible, tap "Yes". Set up your account and voice assistant if applicable. Then choose "Add light" and tap "Pair" when prompted to grant Bluetooth permission for the device. Add the rest of your lights and name them then tap "Next" to finish the set-up process.
