Chart day Oct 25, 2026
From Utilities grossing #54

Unverified model estimate. Neither Apple nor the developer has published this number, and the real figure can be several times higher or lower. Low confidence: the real figure can be a band higher or lower.

How this estimate is made

Rank: we take the app's best Top Grossing rank on the latest chart day. Category ranks are converted into an equivalent overall rank, because a #10 in Finance earns far less than a #10 overall.

Curve: that equivalent rank is read off a rank-to-revenue curve anchored on public company revenue and market-data reports for the US iPhone App Store.

Country: the curve is scaled per country (Japan is roughly a third of the US, Türkiye under 1%). Where we have no scale, such as China, there is no estimate.

Range: the likely range widens with country, category and chart depth. It is a plausible span, not a statistical confidence interval.

Not included: ads, payments outside the App Store, and any difference between gross sales and what the developer keeps. Low confidence means indirect data; medium means several independent sources agree.

What’s new

Release notes for the latest version, as written by the developer.

v5.18.2

5.18.2:

  • Resolved a problem for new installs where the device list "start search" part had to be scrolled down to see it - we're sorry for any inconvenience!

New in iConnectHue 5.18

  • Support for Sync Box 4k and Play Screen Sync -

iConnectHue now supports these new Sync devices, including the use of Presets with them, so you can store your favourite settings for quick later recall.

In addition to this, you can now toggle the background lighting mode in their settings, to keep a minimum brightness for dark scenes on your TV in the respective device's settings.

Please note that our Sync support is still in Beta. We are now confident that it should work for everybody, but are still polishing details.

(Available with Pro Membership)

  • Halloween Animations available -

Our yearly Halloween treat is back for everybody - and we've added two new ones: "Ghostly" and "Thriller".

12 spooky Animations are available now until mid of November. Enjoy!

Hint: If you have Nanoleaf panels, connect them - you can run these Animations on them as well! (Pro)

(Available until mid Nov, full year for Memberships)

  • Other bright ideas -
  • We've updated several aspects of the Watch app - if it doesn't show up, try to add it again from your phone's Watch app;
  • If the Watch complication doesn't appear, edit your Watch face and select it again
  • Please keep your watchOS up to date: We only support current and previous versions, so have at least watchOS 26 soon to be able to keep using the Watch app
  • Several detail improvements to make your life easier

Heads up: If widgets or shortcuts act up, try restarting your device - it’s an iOS thing, not an us thing!

  • We’d love your feedback! -
