WiZ (by Signify, the same company behind Philips Hue) smart bulbs and fixtures integrate with Home Assistant over your local Wi-Fi network. Unlike Hue’s Zigbee-based system, WiZ devices connect directly to Wi-Fi, requiring no hub or bridge.
The Home Assistant integration discovers WiZ devices automatically and provides full control over brightness, color temperature, and color (for color-capable bulbs). WiZ is positioned as a more affordable alternative to Philips Hue while still offering local control capability.
Getting WiZ connected to Home Assistant and running reliably.
Home Assistant automatically discovers WiZ devices on your local network. Add them through the integrations panel with a few clicks.
Control brightness, color, and color temperature from the Home Assistant dashboard. Create lighting groups that operate as one.
Build automations that trigger WiZ lights based on motion, time, presence, or any other event in your smart home.
The problems installers run into with WiZ and Home Assistant — and how a managed setup prevents them.
Each WiZ bulb is a Wi-Fi client. Homes with 20+ WiZ bulbs can overwhelm consumer routers, causing disconnections across all smart home devices, not just the bulbs.
WiZ uses UDP broadcast for device discovery, which doesn't cross subnet boundaries. Devices on different VLANs or network segments won't be discovered without special configuration.
After a power outage, WiZ bulbs may turn on at full brightness regardless of their previous state. The 'power on behavior' setting sometimes reverts after firmware updates.
