Philips Hue ZigBee
Is there any more development on this app, any goal to improve experience? It's easy to use, but not a very good experience. If I have 5 bulbs and want to change brightness & temperature on each, there will be a disco with random outcome.
This seems to happen more often when I trigger a flow containing different light settings, than if I run the flow from the editor using "test". However, if I want to change color and brightness, on one light, it seems like it send multiple commands making it "insecure" and flickering. If I change from 20% brightness to 5%, and temp 100% to 20%, it first goes up to 70-80% brightness -> change temperature -> then down to 5% brightness...
I really want to keep my Zigbee mesh in Homey and hide my Hue bridge in the drawer, but it won't be long before I have to go get it again
In short: Can we ever expect a experience even close to how smooth Philips Hue is using the Hue Bridge?
