    I got a couple of smart bulbs a while ago, but I’m apparently the only one in the house willing to use them through a phone or smart speaker Everyone else just turns the lamps of at the switch, which completely defeats the purpose. I gave up on the idea until such time as I can buy some with a manual toggle included.

      Hue makes programmable wall switches, but if you have a smart speaker hooked up to them you can just ask it to dim the lights or make them red or whatever. I find that’s handy for color modes and settings that one might not use very often.

      I stuck a tablet on the wall using Command Strips and it just stays plugged in, in case I want to change the lighting but my phone is across the room.
