Not necessary as you can control them via mobile phone, thru Amazon echo devices (Alexa), Apple HomeKit, etc. But this does make things easy, having a traditional switch to just press sometimes, instead of having to fumble with your phone to talk to Alexa.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can use the app for all of it. So you don’t have to buy the switch. The switch is more of a convenience if you don’t have the phone.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It is not necessary to purchase the dimmer switch/remote. The Philips Hue mobile device application can be used to control the lighting. But if you want family or visitors to be able to control the specified lighting, it may be easier to utilize the switch. Otherwise, they will need to use the mobile device application.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Not necesary. It works just for your convinience. If you have the app you can use it without the dimmer
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Depends on what you're wanting. If you want a simple switch so you don't have to use your phone or voice control, then this switch works great. No, you don't have to have it, but it can be convenient if you don't have your phone for the app or have it hooked up to voice control.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would definitely get the dimmer. There’s so much versatility with the Phillips hue line. Adding a dimmer switch adds more convenience and the buttons are programmable.
