Hi everyone! I’m planning to add a few new smart devices to my setup and I wanted to ask if the following products can be integrated with Homey via the Tuya app, and more importantly — can they be exposed to Apple HomeKit? Here are the products: 1. [https://a.aliexpress.com/\_ExKlxiG](https://a.aliexpress.com/_ExKlxiG) 2. [https://a.aliexpress.com/\_EvhYH4u](https://a.aliexpress.com/_EvhYH4u) I’ll be using Homey Pro as the hub, and Apple Home (HomeKit) is my main app for daily control, so compatibility is a must. If anyone has experience with these or similar Tuya-based devices, I’d really appreciate your input. Thanks in advance! ---
