[EDIT] Problem solved after several resets of HomeyKitty [EDIT]
Hello, I am looking for a possibility to integrate a Homekit device (thermostat) that have no app in the Homey App Store. I donât think this is possible with Homekitty right now, but are there plans for this? If anyone has a suggestion to realize this, Iâd love to hear it
So Iâm looking for a way the other way around!
No, sorry.
@robertklep, Any way you could integrate homekitâs geolocation in the app (ie read home/away per user) and use it as âwhenâ trigger?
I guess itâll be tough as right now itâs more of a âpushâ model rather than pull data from Homekit but itâd be a great feature
Here is one way to do it:
Thanks, that is how I have it now but if thereâs a way to just use the geofence triggers directly it saves the extra steps
Geofencing is something that happens on the phone itself, HomeKitty is unaware of your location. So youâll need an automation. Instead of a virtual device you can also use HomeKittyâs âFlow Starterâ device.
Thanks Robert, appreciate your response.
I was afraid it would be impossible to directly act on these triggers.
Tried the flow starter device and itâs nice but a button (needs to be a switch for it to work properly). Maybe add the possibility to either create a button or switch? Although in the end it wonât really change the mechanics needed, except for potentially removing the need for the Virtual Device app⌠if you donât use the more complex devices such as curtains (sliders etc)
Ah yes, a switch makes more sense.
The Flow Starter device has a specific reason for existing (just using a regular virtual button causes problems with flows triggering multiple times) but for a switch a virtual device is just as easy to use. I donât have plans to add a virtual switch to HomeKitty in the foreseeable future.
Hi!
Some time ago, I described an issue I experienced with the Homeykit after a Homey update. My Aqara and Shelly devices were removed from the Appleâs Home app. It looked as if they were deselected on the Homeykit deviceâs list.
Just after, I moved to HomeKitty. Everything works really well but I just realised that all of my Shelly 2.5 devices disappeared from Appleâs Home app again (as if I deselected them even though I didnât and they were not deselected). I can see that the Shelly Homey app was recently updated. Could there be a link between those 2 events? It was enough for me to deselect those specific devices in the HomeKitty app and select them again so not a big issue.
There could be, although itâs strange that a device doesnât show up on iOS but is still selected as being added in the list of devices. Without more information (like a diagnostics report) I donât know how this can happen.
Is this a generally better solution for HomeKit and homey cooperation than Athomâs own HomeKit experiment?
Certainly!
Not only in functionality but also in support when you have questions or remarks.
@robertklep after the latest rc, in wich some networking is changed from athomâs side, homekitty canât connect to homekit anymore. If you need a diagnostic report or something let me knowđ
Already posted v2.1.0 (current test version) which should solve the issue.
Youâre the bestđđť everything works again.
When Homey reboots Homekitty always set the Qubino switch in a default room. And canât switch the device to another room in HomeKit. I have to restart homekitty, publish and unpublish the device in Homekitty.
This happens when HomeKit (iOS) thinks the device is new. If it just happens with Qubino devices, Iâm inclined to think that this is due to something in the Qubino app.
Yes only with Qubino. All others are fine. I canât even move the device to other rooms without toggling some settings. Like restarting Homekitty multiple times or publish and unpublish the Qubino device.
