QR codes are usually found on the product itself, such as on the back or bottom of the product itself or on a tag on the power cable.

Can I scan multiple devices' QR codes to add them all to my Bridge at once?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Scan all the QR codes you'd like to add to a Room. The app will guide you through adding them to your Bridge.

Question 5

Can I add multiple devices for multiple Rooms by scanning their QR codes?

Accepted Answer

During setup, the app will first guide you through adding the lights to an existing Room or creating a new Room. Then, you'll scan the devices you want to be added to that Room. When setup for that Room is complete, you'll create the next Room, scan your devices, and so on.

Question 6

I can't scan the QR code. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

If you can't scan the QR code, try these tips:

Make sure you're using the QR code on the physical device you want to add.
Make sure the light itself is powered off to make sure the camera isn't overexposed.
Make sure your camera is properly focused and there is sufficient light for it to see the QR code.

Still having trouble? Select No QR code during setup to add a device with its serial number or setup code, also located on the physical device itself.

Question 7

Can I scan the QR code on an older Philips Hue device to add it to my Bridge?

Accepted Answer

Usually! Most Philips Hue devices can be added to your Bridge via the QR code. However, some devices may not have a QR code. In that case, you can select No QR code during setup to add the device with its serial number or setup code.

Yes. If you don't have a Bridge, you can add devices to your app by scanning their QR codes and control them using Bluetooth.

Question 10

Can I add a product that's already been set up by scanning its QR code?
