I have an iPhone 5s. Am I no longer able to use my Phillips wake-up light?

Having gone through issues with this, I can confirm this: if you buy OFFICIAL Apple accessories (dock to lightning adapter), it should work! My iPod 5G (with iOS 7) works with the light ONLY with Apple branded converters. I imagine the same goes for iPhone 5. I had issues with non-branded dock-to-lightning adapters...

You can use an iPhone/iPad 5 with the Philips Wake-Up Light by purchasing the Lightning to 30-pin adapter from Apple. It converts the previous Apple generation port to the 5 series

The last-gen proprietary Dock connectors for 4s is different from the new lightning ones for the 5, so no.

I don't think you can. Mine stopped working completely after a month or so but only ever had the loud alarm mode.

If you look at power save options you can adjust the brightness I believe. I had similar issues, but the brightness is usually enough in power save mode that I don't have an issue with it.

I have had the same issues. Part of my problem was because the Lightning dock won't work if you have a protective case. I'm going to have a case on my $500+ phone. I have not found a docking alarm clock that is compatable.

I don't believe that can be done. I have to set it each time I want to change the wake up time.

30-pin docks and alarm clocks, such as this one, are not compatible with the new Apple Lighting connector of the iPhone 5. I believe you can purchase an adapter, but in my opinion it would be best if you purchase something specifically made for the iPhone 5.

You will need to adjust the volume manually for wake up. You can wake up to your iPhone through the speakers. You could wake to a song that starts out soft and builds. Save the 200 bucks, Sound is great.

I just tried this, and unfortunately the light doesn't work once it's been plugged into the device. I only use it as a timer to wake me up in the morning and it works great for that!

Try holding the power button for a couple of seconds. The light cycles they 3 light settings.

It doesn't have an alarm but it'll vibrate when the alarm on your iPhone goes off. So you could set the alarm on your iPhone to silent then the Phyode will vibrate and light up. This function, however, doesn't work in Android. I contacted Phyode and they acknowledged the problem and are working on it.

If you find out please let me know. You can use the light on its own if you turn it on by hand (not using the alarm) but I haven't been able to get the alarm to use the light only) Sorry, this wasn't super helpful, but at least you know you're not alone!

Press and hold to dim or brighten. One touch will power off the device. One touch for on will brighten to the last brightness. Hope that helps.

Same thing happened to mine. I ordered a replacement sensor - called a TOUCH LIGHT SENSOR by OK Lighting from Amazon (Prime). It's the same thing that is in the base of the lamp now. I'm only going to try one replacement sensor because I read that these touch lamps should not be left on all the time. I was using it for a lamp during the day and a night light at night so I guess I wore it out (in only a little over a month)!!!!! I really like the lamp and it will be a shame to have to trash it !!!!!

I don't have an iPhone, but this does not occur when using it with my iPad which I pretty much use exclusively with the Bright Tech.

When I turn mine one there is no light. It only has a light on when it's charging. I never saw change color. Try pairing it. If it doesn't come up for pairing on your device then you got a bad one.

Hi there, I have found a couple of workaround solutions using OS7 but it is not perfect.First, although you are able to select your own music to fall asleep and wake up to, it won't play and the wake light will default to one of its own (limited) sound tracks.To get around this at night, deselect the "fall asleep to music" setting within the wake light program, then select your music and press play on your phone BEFORE docking and starting the sunset simulation.I haven't found a way to play my own selection in the morning.If I had it to do over again - I wouldn't have purchased now. I'd have waited until there is a bluetooth version. The lamp will be obsolete and unusable as soon as you move away from an iPhone 4.
