Control the ambience in your house, allows to wireless dimm your Innr lights. The Innr remote works standalone and in addition to our app for smartphone or tablet. This Zigbee item is compatible with the Innr bridge and with limited functionalities can also control your Philips Hue lights.

Not really Hue compatible. Shame, as it would be just the job otherwise.
It's probably great if you're using Innr throughout, but if you're mixing Innr and Philips Hue you're really out-of-luck. It may have paired with a Hue Hub once, but I couldn't make it. And even if it does, it turns out it's limited to switching ALL the lights in the house at once. This really isn't very useful unless you enjoy plunging everyone in to darkness.The Philips Hue dimmer, on the other hand, works fine with Innr bulbs via the Philips hub. Unfortunately their standard dimmer doesn't do scenes as well (you can only cycle through a few rather than selecting the one you want), which is why I bought the Innr one. Unfortunately it definitely won't do scenes with Hue. You can buy the Philips Hue scene switcher for scenes; it's not cheap and not nice to use. The best idea is the newer Philips dimmer; the regular one.Like the Phillips dimmer, it can be used stand-alone or through a hub. In stand-alone it only seems to work with Innr bulbs. If you have Innr bulbs only and don't have a hub, this is a great solution.I wish the Zigbee implementers would sort this kind of thing out. I refuse to buy any system that's single source; Hue and Innr bulbs do coexist, but not the controllers. It's got to go back.

Faulty
I have one of these already which I bought around a year ago, and so I know how it works. I bought a set of bulbs and this remote. The set up was fine, turning on the lights was fine, but turning off the lights - didn't work. After much fiddling (and numerous wasted batteries) I realised that to get it to work you had to take the batteries in and out. Then it would work for an hour or so. Then it wouldn't work again. I sent a message to Innr and they acknowledged that there is a faulty batch, and frustratingly they couldn't give me any reassurance the next one I bought would be ok, unless I ordered it directly from the Netherlands and paid £10 (approx) postage. I am happy with the Innr bulbs I bought so I am going to return this and try and get another one from Amazon. But I am not holding out much hope. I wish I had gone for a different make entirely - I wanted the bulbs and remote to be the same make to avoid compatibility issues. Not impressed. If anyone is thinking of buying one - don't bother!

Works well, basic functionality with Hue.
This remote works perfectly with the Hue Bridge, and performs well. Follow the instructions and you can turn lights on and off, dim etc. No problems so far. As above: "The remote offers basic functionality when connected to a Hue bridge; it controls all lights, not individual lights. It can not be assigned to a room."

Compatibility with Hue is a fallacy - do not buy.
Innr needs to expand on there description of Hue integration. Unless you have all of your Hue lights in one room, this is a totally unusable accessory. Basic functionality is very different from:- it’ll turn all the lights in your house off and on- it’ll dim all the lights in your houseThe scenes buttons don’t work. The program buttons don’t work. The group buttons don’t work. Essentially this does not work with Philips Hue. Marketing as such is a fallacy.

Rubbish
Don't buy this if you're expecting it to work with Hue, it doesn't, well not in any useful way. I was unable to get it to pair with my Hue bridge at all, then realised that even if it had paired, it will not control individual lights! So basically you would gain the ability to turn on and off all the Innr/Hue lights in your house at the same time and that's it. Rubbish and dishonest IMO to list it as Hue compatible.

Have changed the batteries twice in 2 days
It's works great once it's been set up . Had it 2 days and had the change the batteries twice. Had trouble setting up so I down loaded the manual from innr then found it easy to set up . It's a shame it doesn't come with manual.

Have tried to get this to work for the past hour, but all I have now is a very expensive light bulb as the remote doesn't seen to want to connect.
