Philips Hue stopped working with Google Home

JanMac

Hi,

I'm hoping someone will be able to help me on here. I've had two Phillips Hue lights in my bedroom (without a Bridge) that have worked fine with my Google Home for over a year until a week or so when they stopped responding to voice commands. They've always worked fine in the Hue app.

I've deleted the lights from my Google Home, I've reset them and reinstalled them on the Hue app. They work completely fine there. Their software is up to date as well.

Google Home can find them after I make them discoverable in the Hue app. They blink when I click on them. (They do not have the names I gave them in the Hue app though?) When I then click "set up" and "connect", I get a message saying simply "Something went wrong".

I really don't understand why this won't work when Google Home worked fine with them in the past and I can still control them in the Hue app.

Any advice? Thanks!

Hi JanMac,

 

Thanks for posting and for being a step ahead of us. 
 

This is not the experience that we wanted you to have, let me help you out. You can delete Philips Hue lights directly from your Google account using these links below, then attempt to relink them.
