White Series Adaptive Lighting Apple Homekit

This is more of a curiosity than anything else. This week I’ve been getting alerts on my 20+ Inovelli White switches that they are getting updates (this is the first time I’ve seen this, I’ve had them for about 9 months now, a few switches are updating each day for the past three or four days).

Apple Homekit is telling me that they are now capable of “adaptive lighting” (I thought they already could do this, so I’m a bit confused).

Since I don’t have a lot of new smart tech to add, I’m somewhat curious to take advantage of this new feature. Any tips/tricks about using this? Do you find it helpful/useful? I presume I have to get smart bulbs (I have incandescent in most of these fixtures). I’m curious if you feel like it’s worth the money to replace perfectly good bulbs to enable this feature (if smart bulbs are indeed needed).

Thanks for any advice!
