Hello NedT-38,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. If you have connectivity issues with your Philips hue bridge after updating to iOS 16, let's try the following steps:
1- Make sure you have a Home Hub set up : Set up your HomePod, HomePod mini, Apple TV, or iPad as a home hub - Apple Support
2- Make sure all Apple devices , Home Hubs, and all accessories are updated: Hue Bridge
We hope this information is useful. Kind regards.
Unfortunately… No. That did not work. Not really sure how the home kit works together with things, but hue bridge is not findable by anything. it works fine with my wife’s phone. She’s still on iOS 15. Might need a new bridge? Mine is pretty old. Maybe do a factory reset on hue bridge? Not sure. Regardless … it’s like the Apple ecosystem in iOS 16 doesn’t see it at all.
Thanks for the update.
We recommend contacting Phillips as they might have information that could help.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
