I have the Sylvania recess LIGHTIFY color version on my porch. I would like to be able to turn them on automatically at night at a certain brightness and a certain color. Right now I have to go into each light and change the color manually this tedious as hell. I have 9 of these.
I’m running smartthings hub,
(had to re-word this cause some people do’nt read good)
I didn’t bother with the manufactures app osram sylvania!!! (read it sucks) I would like time to stick with smartthings ecosystem but I’ll try anything.
Thanks in advance!
I’m looking for a SMARTAPP that can automate this task
the switch on the wall turns it on and off. I have the lights hooked up to my smartthings version 2 hub. the only way i can turn these on and off is going to the smartthings app then each individual light and then turning them on or off thats it. i do not have any other way that ius why im here if you have anything constructive to contribute please do
I would look at using a couple of apps that might work for you. SmartLighting to give you the time control of the porch switch and then add all your color light bulbs to this app for syncing together based on the porch switch. @Triosinal did a great job on this app and it sounds like its just what you are looking for?
someone needs to read more carefully! i stated that i am running snmartthings app and that I am not running the manufactures app sylvania the company that makes the light bulb!
Wow, I thought I was being very polite in asking for clarification.
Yes, the smart lighting smartapp is capable of doing what you ask. If you need help with finding and using this smartapp please ask.
You were more than polite and did point in the right direction.
Just no helping some people.
At this point I think you should abandon this thread and let him get on with it.
Personal attacks on this forum is not acceptable practice. I can infact read very well thankyou very much. We are all here to try and help each other. Please keep conversations cordial.
Yes I do need help that’s why I posted on this forum asking for help someone please help me I am trying to get these lights to automatically turn on and set to a specific color
If you read post 2 it told you what to do.
Post 16 put some pretty pictures in for you.
Perhaps if you were less confrontational with your responses you may get further.
Thank you for the interesting helping me I did get it working. I tried to think the person that helped me but it got flagged as inappropriate
I quickly realized if you post your opinion without using any curse words or inflammatory language your post will get flagged because you put it out something someone else did so because of that I didn’t respond 2 most of the users here trying to help me

Thanks again for the guys who helped this newbie
happy to have come across this post as i have pretty much the same question. I have philips hue colour lamps connected to my smartthings hub v2, and i have setup some lamps using the Smart Lighting SmartApp. The motion triggers the lights as expected, however i am correct in saying there should be an option to set the colour and brightness? I cant see this option.
