Get it on Google PlayParty Lights streams high-speed effects to Philips Hue lights over your local Wi-Fi using the Hue Entertainment API, so effects feel instant.
Effects
- Color Loop — your palette, smoothly, with per-light chase
- Pulse — lights breathe in your palette
- Chase — a wave of color travels across the room
- Random Pop — random lights snap to random colors
- Strobe — hard flashes (rate-capped, with a safety warning)
Music modes
- Beat Flash — every light flashes on the beat
- Energy Glow — brightness follows the music's loudness
- Spectrum — bass hits the floor lamps, treble the ceiling
Music reactivity uses the microphone (or this device's audio) and analyzes it in real time on your phone. Audio is never recorded, stored, or transmitted.
