“How do you set the bulb to bright white (instead of soft white)? This is my first ambiance bulb, and I can't find where to set the white tone.”

• Just go to your Hue app and find the room or bulb you are trying to change. Tap the actual name of the room and it will take you to scenes or recipes. Then choose recipes and the setting you want...relax, read, concentrate or energize.

• If you have it connected to Alexa, it wil set to bright white on command: "Alexa turn the bedroom light bright white.". The Hue app also has a built in preset for reading.

• You need the Hue bridge and the Hue app. After you setup the bulb(s) in the app you just need to press the bulb icon you want to 'edit' and there ya go, a 'color wheel' shows up and you select the hue of white you would like!

• You need to have a dimmer switch or a hue bridge. If you have the bridge then you can connect with your smart phone to change the color tone. If you have the dimmer switch you can press the 'on' button multiple times.

  I would recommend:
