Signify expands its smart home lighting offering in the US with new range of Wi-Fi LED products

SOMERSET, N.J., Aug. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Signify (Euronext: LIGHT), the world leader in lighting, is expanding its comprehensive smart home lighting offering in the United States. In addition to Bluetooth- and Zigbee-based smart lighting with Philips Hue, Signify's offering now includes Wi-Fi-enabled lighting that works with the WiZ Connected ecosystem.

The WiZ Connected ecosystem operates independently from the Philips Hue ecosystem. Conveniently adjust the Philips Smart Wi-Fi LED lighting using the easy-to-use WiZ app on your smartphone or tablet and your home's Wi-Fi network – no wiring or additional equipment is required.

Getting started is simple.
Download the free WiZ app (iOS or Android), screw the retrofit light bulb in any existing table lamp or fixture or the downlight in your ceiling, and follow the step-by-step guide in the app to complete the setup.

You'll then be able to:

• Conveniently control your home lighting wherever you are using the WiZ app, or with Alexa, the Google Assistant or Siri shortcuts if you have a compatible voice device. 
• Wirelessly dim your Philips Smart Wi-Fi LED WiZ Connected lights, or choose from pre-set light scenes for ambiance.
• Change the shade of white light – from warm white to cool daylight – to suit your daily tasks.
• Make your home glow with any color you like.
• Set light schedules and timers.

"There are so many activities we carry out at home. Our Philips Smart Wi-Fi LED WiZ Connected range makes it easy to set the right light for any and all situations," said Jeroen Schuitemaker, US Consumer Business Leader, Signify. "Whether you're spending time with your family and friends, doing housework or enjoying a meal, you can conveniently get the different light settings you need with the tap of an app or using your voice."
