Glad I still have the old bridge which is not compatible with the current app, and so they offer the legacy app separately. Though I assume it's only a matter of time before the bulbs I have die and new bulbs require the new bridge.
Yep, glad I have my bridge blocked off from the internet, so they can't force an update
I think the bulbs should work with any ZigBee compatible bridge.
Supposedly they will but according to others you lose some of the fine grained color control without the Hue app. I can't say for sure because I don't have any Hue bulbs.
