Today “Adaptive lighting” is not only an Apple functionnality. Ikea and HA for example have this functionnality outside of Apple ecosystem.
So when I came on Aqara T2 bulb product page and see “Adaptive Lighting” without “* only with Apple Homekit”, I understood that you can have “Adaptive Lighting” with Aqara hub and Aqara Home Android app.
I’ve bought some bulb, switched them to Zigbee and no Adaptive Lighting.
On reddit, the answer I got is that it’s only on Apple HomeKit.
So the functionnality list on the product page feels wrong if it’s true.
PS : still like Aqara product, enjoying the Aqara light switch H2 eu with relay lock that can maintain power on my smart bulb. But it’s jungle for smart home newcomers between thread/zigbee functionnality and all other ecosystem compatibility.

@nacros79 Thank you for sharing your experience with the Aqara T2 bulb and Adaptive Lighting. It sounds like you’re navigating the complexities of smart home technology with a keen eye.
To clarify, Adaptive Lighting is indeed a feature primarily associated with Apple HomeKit, as highlighted in our reference information. The Aqara LED Bulb T2 requires a compatible hub, and the Adaptive Lighting function is currently available through Apple HomeKit, which may explain the discrepancy you encountered. This feature automatically adjusts the color temperature based on the time of day, enhancing the ambiance and comfort of your living space.
It’s understandable how the lack of explicit mention on the product page about the limitation to Apple HomeKit might have led to some confusion. Your feedback is invaluable, and I encourage you to share it with our product team for potential improvements in product communication.
If you have further questions or need assistance, please feel free to ask. And thank you for your continued support and enjoyment of Aqara products. It’s wonderful to hear about your positive experience with the Aqara light switch H2. Keep exploring and sharing your smart home journey!
