there's definitely a hue skill i reinstalled it the other day but all the reviews from 2 days ago say it's stopped working.
i think they may have introduced a bug rolling out new hue security changes. one of the reviews mentions removing both hue and alexa apps and re-installing them to get it working.
I got myself an Amazon Echo yesterday to replace an older Echo View.
The older Echo view was able to connect and control my Philips Hue lights via the Philips Bridge (V2) however, the new Echo doesn't seem to be able to connect with the Bridge.
When looking for a specific skill linked to Philips Hue, I yield no result. When trying to add a device from the Amazon Alexa app, it tells me the skill has been removed.
When trying to connect via the Philips Hue app, it's not able to locate the Echo device.
Am I missing a step or is there a difference in compatibility between the new Echo vs the older gen?
Cheers
