LIFX brings a new app feature: Day & Dusk.
Day & Dusk automates your day with the different sun phases, so that the color temperature matches the sun’s own color shifts throughout the day. We show you how!
Grouping is a powerful function within the LIFX app which allows for convenient adjustment of multiple LIFX lights throughout your home or workspace. You’ll gain enhanced control over your lighting network while opening the doors on some very cool lighting themes and effects at the same time.
Naturally ease your transition into the waking world or dip yourself to sleep, with Solar Schedules. This GPS-enabled feature pairs the LIFX lights in the home with the rising and setting of the sun. Schedule your preferred time to light or dim the household while keeping in a natural rhythm with the Sun’s movement across the Earth.
