I have just added a Hue Light Strip to my set up (which works with Home Assitant so far).
I can’t detect the light strip in HA.
And my iPhone is too old to run te latest Philips Hue App so I can’t add it via the Philips app.
Is there any solution?
No android phone for the philps app?
Nope, don’t want to spend hours configuring leaky Android privacy 
Use bluestacks.
Or get away from the hue hub and use either the built in ZHA or zigbee2mqtt.
What device is it that you are trying to add? Hue Light Strip covers more than one piece of hardware.

Just decommissioned the Hue Hub altogether myself
I would be happy to - but I have a Philips Ambilight TV that links up with the Hue lights via the hub. Would this be possible wiht Zigbee or alternative hub?
Likely not. Everything pertaining to “entertainment”, like the HDMI sync box, is non-standard, and needs the hub, indeed.
I used the entertainment feature as well, but I recently moved to a wled-hyperion solution, so that was the last blocker.
As Francis pointed out, use bluestack, which is an Android emulation app, which will (likely) allow you to run the Hue app.
