At CES 2023, Philips launched the Philips Hue Sync TV app for Samsung TVs. It linked Philips’ smart lights with Samsung TVs to allow those lights to change color based on the content the TV is displaying, offering a more cinematic experience. Back then, Philips had made the app available only in the US. Now, it is expanding the app's availability to more regions. Along with it, Philips has updated the Hue Sync TV app with a very useful and interesting feature called Music Mode and introduced a monthly subscription plan for it.
Philips Hue TV Sync now available in five more countries
Samsung has announced that the Philips Hue Sync TV app is now available in Brazil, the Czech Republic, Hong Kong, Poland, and Slovakia. To download the app, click on the APPS card on the home screen, select the search icon from the top-right corner of the display, type the app’s name and select it from the search result, and click on Install.
You can now pay for the app on a monthly basis
Up until now, you had to pay a one-time fee of USD 129.99 to use Philips Hue Sync TV on your Samsung TV, which could be too big of an amount for some people to pay at once. Well, Philips seems to have understood the issue as the company now allows you to pay for the app monthly. The subscription plan costs USD 2.99. What’s interesting is that unlike the one-time payment option, which allows you to use the app only on one Samsung TV, the subscription plan allows you to use the app simultaneously on three Samsung TVs.
Smart lights can now change color based on audio
If you use the Philips Hue Sync TV app, you might know that it offers two dynamic lighting options: Video mode and Game mode. Well, according to an image in the press release, it now offers a third option: Music mode. From what we understand, if you select this mode, Philips smart light will change color based on the audio that the TV is playing rather than the video it is displaying. This mode will be very helpful in setting the mood when you are using audio streaming apps, such as Apple Music, Spotify, or YouTube Music.
