[APP][Pro] HomeKit Controller - for a better Homey

Can I add other Apple Home devices?

I have an oil diffuser that works with Apple Home, but I’d prefer to add it to Homey.

I’ve already tried adding it to Homey myself, but the oil diffuser isn’t being detected. I’ve already deleted the device from Apple Home.

Try power cycle the diffuser and try again after a few minutes.

That would be great if I could add Eve Flare as it is Homekit only by Thread :smiley:

No luck. I can’t get it to connect. I’ve already restarted the app and tried connecting again, but it doesn’t work. I’ve also restarted Homey, but it just can’t find the device.

I am loving the potential of having homekit devices only in homey through this app. Have done this with two Ecobee Smart+ light switches. This is running off the self hosted server version of Homey. Initially the Ecobee Switch+ stayed connected solidly, so I added another one. These switches are next door rooms. FYI - when they were connected through the ecobee app and to Apple Homekit they did not go offline for years in these locations. I have to reset this app quite often to get it the devices working again.. I am testing only with the two switches as they are in good non essential test locations. The two switches are connected to homey slightly differently. One is connected to the Ecobee app first then paired to homekit. The other one had an option i hadn;t seen before - but after fully restting, my iphone, in the WiFi settings showed the network created by the switch and allowed me to connect it directly to my WiFi network without using the Ecobee app.. then I used Homey Homekit app to connect it… both ways have added it to Homey and fully controlled, including the motion sensor built in to these switches.. but they are not staying connected.

Any and all support appreciated.

Hi. I added my tado V3 TRVs. I can control Them fine, but they does not show up in Climate overview.

There will be an update for this. A bridged accessory is not being set to the correct deviceclass.

The Eve Room is HomeKit over Thread, but I can’t get it to show up in controller when pairing. Any ideas?

Because it is over thread which is not supported yet
