I want your feedback! Please use the email address listed below with any improvements or other home automations you'd like to see available.
Note: To assign buttons you will be asked to enable Hue Shortcuts as an accessibility service. This allows the app to monitor your remote control button presses but does not allow it to see anything you enter in an on-screen keyboard. Only buttons explicitly assigned within the Hue Shortcuts app are acted upon. See the privacy policy for full details.
