How to Fix Your Philips Hue Bulb Automatically Adjusting to Full Brightness
Tech & AI | July 9, 2024, 2:44 p.m.
Signify, the parent company of Philips Hue smart light bulbs, has identified an issue causing the lights to randomly switch to full brightness. This problem stems from an interoperability issue with the Matter smart home standard, where radio disruptions are mistaken for power toggles. However, it was revealed that this is a specific implementation issue with Philips Hue lights and not a bug in the Matter code itself. The good news is that a fix is in the works and will be released within the next week. In the meantime, users can disconnect the Hue Bridge from Matter to temporarily resolve the problem. This issue only affects a small percentage of users and should not impact other smart lights compatible with Matter. Keep an eye out for the solution to this problem and consider disconnecting the Hue Bridge if needed.
