    Hi
    Looking for some help. What are the options for voice control on Philips hue. I have started replacing my bulbs with the hue . Finding the app isn't sufficient as I forget my phone going upstairs and then cant turn on the light 🀔

    You can voice control Hue with either Google Home or Amazon Echo.

    I'd recommend Google Home, I think it is better. Google Home Mini are currently on sale for £35 from the Google Store in the UK.

    https://store.google.com/gb/product/google_home_mini - +1 to the above, especially hard to turn down at £35.

    I recently changed every bulb in my place to hue except bathroom.

    For voice control I use Amazon and Siri. I am buying more Alexa devices for each bedroom as currently only have a dot in living area.

    I also invested in 3 remotes and one tap device so if not near the voice devices I can still turn on lights, awaiting delivery of motion detector to use in hall.
