I have a question that I hope there is a “good answer” to:
I am migrating from a 2019 to 2023 Homey Pro, and I expose most of the connected devices to Apple Home using HomeKitty. Is there any chance that they will be working as is in Apple Home after the migration, or must I set up the 2023 HP as a new hub and then fix all the devices?
Assume it won’t work and you have to set things up again.
I feared as much, but thanks for confirming!
I will receive my Homey Pro tomorrow and I’ve been reading about the different types of HK integrations.
Is HomeKitty still (December 2024) the best / preferred way compared to the experimental feature ?
Yes 
Do make sure to install the test version of HomeKitty (see first post of thread).

Hi, I’m experiencing an issue with the SONOFF Thermostat TRVZB. It appears in HomeKit, but not as a thermostat—it only displays the room temperature. Has anyone encountered this problem or have any suggestions to fix it? Thanks in advance!
Please consult the first post of the thread.
Thanks, i’m’on 2.2.7… I’ll wait. Thanks for this great app.
If you’re going to wait for me to upgrade the test version to stable, it may be a while.

Hi, I just installed HomeKitty. Thanks for all the effort you put in this app!
I was hoping I could start a shortcut using a FlowStarter device. But the only automation options I see in my Home app are for starting scenes or operating other Home devices. Am I missing something within the Home app? Is it possible to start a shortcut when the FlowStarter device is pressed in a Homey flow?
As far as I know you can’t use Shortcuts in HomeKit automations at all.
Hi, I just installed the Homekitty app. When I’m on wifi, everything is ok but if I switch to my phone’s network, no device communicates. Do you know what I’m doing wrong in the installation?
Remote access only works if you have Home Hub devices (like an Apple TV or HomePod), that’s how the HomeKit protocol works. HomeKitty itself doesn’t deal with any of that.
Thanks for the info
Hi. Can you add the possibility to add robot vacuums to HomeKit?

Hello, I’m trying to add a driveway gate to HomeKit, which I control using SwitchBot (it physically presses a button on the remote). I want to create a virtual device in Device Capabilities and then sync it with HomeKit, hoping that it will recognize the gate as a proper gate or garage door and display it on CarPlay. I’m not sure if this will work, but I can’t figure out what parameters HomeKitty needs to pass the device as a garage door or gate in HomeKit. Can anyone help me?

For a garage door it requires a device of class garagedoor that has the capability garagedoor_closed (and optionally the capability alarm_generic to flag an obstruction has been detected).
Thank you! I tried your configuration, adding garagedoor_closed both as a Yes/No field and as a Button (assuming that HomeKitty ignores unsupported capabilities), but unfortunately, HomeKitty still says it’s unsupported.
Find the device here: Homey Developer Tools
And make a screenshot of the capabilities for it. Perhaps AVD doesn’t make the correct ones.
