Hello Sipach,
This switch is configured via the Hue app. There, a separate scene can be stored for each of the 4 buttons. Time-controlled functions are currently not supported.
However, I could imagine such a function via a service like IFTTT. If the corresponding recipes are available there.
Greetings
The second generation is compatible with Apple apps and their new products, which is not the case with the first generation.
It worked after some trial and error. At first I couldn't find the Tap Switch or another iris with the app. Then I disconnected the old switch from the power supply and plugged it back in. After that, the Tap Switch and iris could be recognised. However, this may also be due to my branched LAN configuration. Now everything works perfectly.
So you have to press a little to make it click, but not extremely hard and only once at a time.
In the current Hue app from Philips, there is a button "Discover* In the submenu, go to Hue Labs; there, an additional software called "Tap Dimmer" is offered, which you can download. This should work. I haven't had the chance to try it out yet. Philips points out that these additional programs are still in the test phase and that you use them at your own risk.
