Well, I tried Ikea gateway but did not like it and unistall. Unfortunettly ikea gateway accessories are still visiable in Homekit (although not in Homey). How can I delete it? tried to delete and add Homey as a hub but still after adding it wants me to add all the Ikea gateway accessories…

The IKEA gateway itself also supports Homekit, so it’s unrelated to Homey. Does Home show an accessory for the gateway that you can remove, perhaps?

Nope, bunch of “default devices” are added only if I add homey to Homekit. It were created by Ikea gateway app for homey and after unistalling app, still are added to Homekit via homey, eventho the aren’t in Homey currently

Which Homekit app/implementation do you use for Homey? It doesn’t make sense that a Homekit app would provide a device to iOS that doesn’t exist anymore.

The experimental feature is created by Athom, so it might be wise to submit a support request through their web form: [https://support.athom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015784034-Submit-a-support-request](https://support.athom.com/hc/en-us/articles/360015784034-Submit-a-support-request)
