Local, private, no ads.

Party 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 — the rainbow, 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 your device's audio, and analyzes it
in real time on your phone. Audio is never recorded, stored, or transmitted.

**Private by design**
• 100% local control — talks directly to your bridge
• No account, no ads, no analytics, no data collection
• Pay once — no subscriptions, no in-app purchases

**You'll need**
• A Philips Hue Bridge (v2, the square one)
• Color-capable Hue lights
• An Entertainment area (create one in the official Hue app)

⚠️ Photosensitivity warning: this app can produce rapidly flashing lights,
which may trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer
discretion advised; strobe effects can be disabled entirely in settings.
