I have had my Hue lights for a few years, and have controlled them through a number of different generations of iPhones, apps, etc. The plugin now loads 83 different scenes, and references 12 scene creators, including 4 from my current iPhone 7, many from previous iPhones I no longer own, SmartThings poll, etc.
Even when I pick the Hue 3 App on iPhone 7 (the app and phone I use), I see dozens of scenes, all of which are duplicates of the default Hue scenes.
To use the Indigo recall scene command, I need to click select each of the iterations of the desired scene in the Scene dropdown until I finally find one that shows lights in the Lights Affected box.
I think the scenes are stored in the Hue Bridge itself, but I can't figure out how to delete them without a hard reset which would necessitate reloading all 18 lights - some of which cannot be found unless i use a special low-level app from Hue that is a huge PIA.
When I first upgraded from my Hue 1 bridge to the current one, the transfer seemed to only transfer a small number of scenes, but I suspect one of these scene creators may have sneaked the other old unused ones into the bridge???
Anyway - can you assist in helping me get rid of the other scene creators and unused scenes?
