Hue Labs Has Shut! How To 'Fix' Philips Hue App Lighting Effects

I have spoken a lot on this channel about how I dislike that the Philips Hue app is split into two: the overly simple (and feature light!) Hue app, and the feature rich but buggy Hue Labs areas. Luckily Philips Hue have been working hard to move various dynamic lighting features into the main Hue app. So can we now FINALLY create a range of funky, dynamic smart lighting effects from the Hue app?

Well I look exactly at what does (and doesn't) work well in the 'upgraded' Hue app area, and I also discuss what we'll lose from Hue Labs shutting down.
