Question 2

I am unable to control my light when I am away from home

Accepted Answer

To control your lights while away from home, you’ll need to set up the Home & Away functionality:

Select Routines at the bottom of the app screen.
Select Home & Away.
Turn the Location aware toggle button from off to on.*

Once you have set up Home & Away, you can control your lights anywhere you have a Wi-Fi, 3G or 4G connection the same way you would as if you were at home. If you’re having trouble controlling your lights while away from home, please double check that you are logged into your Hue account and your lights are reachable.

*You must be connected to your home Wi-Fi for the initial set up. If you are not connected to your home Wi-Fi, you will receive an error message."
