Yeah, I’ve done that with the devices that I can, I guess I have too many 🙃 ---

Just wondering, but is anyone else suddenly experiencing that every day all devices simply dissapear in homekit coming from homeykit? This has worked fine for a long time and now suddenly this starts to happen. Only way to fix it is to restart the Homeykit app. I also tried resetting cache in the Homeykit app, but it still happens every morning. ---

Homey firmware 7.0.1 is broken and causing lots of issues, not just with Homeykit but also with other apps. ---

Same here. Annoying, since I have the gate, garages, doors, windows and all the lights set and now completely disappeared. Had made new settings twice for nothing. What’s the solution? Any updates from Bas Jansen? ---

Install the RC for the new system version. Or wait until it becomes RTM (which shouldn’t take long) ---

To answer my own question. If you are still getting unknown with Homey 7.1.0, you need to restart HomeyKit app and it will work. It does for me ---

True. Yesterday I had to pull the plug because of renovations and now nothing works. I’m an excellent psychologist with some knowhow, but this is frustrating. So it’s not just a HomeyKit problem anymore. 😅 ---

When I’m using Apple Homekit to turn on a dimmer the light jumps to full brightness. I would like that it dims to the previous value. Previously with a Domoticz instance and Homekit this was the case. Does anyone has the same problem? Or a way to fix this? ---

Support was added for devices with device class `blinds`, `curtain` or `sunshade` that use the `windowcoverings_state` capability (see [this issue](https://github.com/swttt/com.swttt.homekit/issues/212)). ---

Hello. Is there a way to change to device type that’s exposed t the Home app? I have setup a Xiaomi Purifier and added it into Homey but Homeykit exposes it as a light to the Home app. Can this be modified by the user?
