Hi at all.  
In the Homekit’s homey service, It could be useful have the choice what device can be linked to Home app of Apple.  
This to avoid to have the same devices in the Home app (one from directly Home app an another from Homey homekit service).  
Thanks  
Regards  
Carlo

Use the Homeykit app from the app store ( not the experimental homey homekit option) then you have a choice if a homey device is added to Apple’s Homekit.

Hi Martin.  
I used it until the last Homey firmware update 5.x, afther this it seemed not worked properly. Home app of Apple don’t syncronize the device for a long time.  
Thanks
