Somerset, New Jersey – Philips Lighting (Euronext: LIGHT), the world leader in lighting, today announced that the comprehensive smart home system from Vivint Smart Home, the leading smart home services provider in North America, now works seamlessly with Philips Hue. Vivint customers can easily integrate the connected lighting system to enhance the smart home experience.
Customers can manage their Philips Hue products from their Vivint Smart Home SkyControl™ panel or Vivint Smart Home mobile app. They can create custom lighting schedules for rooms, floors or their entire home, including having the Philips Hue lights on to imitate home occupancy while away.

Customers can control their Philips Hue lighting with their voice by commanding their Amazon Alexa or Google Home devices, as well.
