• The Philips Hue app has introduced multi-bridge support, allowing users to link multiple Hue Bridges into a single home system.
• This means you can manage all your Hue lights, regardless of which Bridge they’re connected to, from a single “Home” within the app.
• Previously, users had to manage each Bridge separately, making it cumbersome for homes with multiple hubs.

Philips Hue, a leading name in smart lighting known for its wide compatibility with various smart home platforms, has just made a significant upgrade to its system. While many Hue products offer Bluetooth connectivity for standalone use, they shine brightest when paired with the Philips Hue Smart Hub (commonly called the Hue Bridge). For those with extensive Hue setups spanning larger areas or multiple floors, relying on two or more Hue Bridges has been a common solution.

However, managing these separate bridges often meant juggling between different “Homes” within the Philips Hue app. That’s all changing with the latest update to the Philips Hue app. As of version 5.31, users can now link multiple Hue Bridges within a single home setup in the app, enabling unified control over all connected lights.
