Does the Philips Hue Smart Bulb work with Apple Home?

The Philips Hue Smart Bulb connects using Zigbee/Matter.

Since it uses Zigbee/Matter, it pairs directly with Apple Home — no extra bridge or hardware needed to get it working.

Setup: Requires a separate Philips Hue Bridge. In the Hue app, go to Settings > Smart home & voice > Siri & Apple Home and follow the pairing steps.
Keep in mind: This won't connect to Apple Home without the Hue Bridge (sold separately, around $60) — the bulb alone can't pair directly.
