homekit issues

I am currently experiencing difficulties with Home/HomeKit. I tried to add a bridge as an accessory to my home, but it is stuck in a perpetual loading state. I have already tried rebooting and reinstalling, but none of these measures have been effective. I would appreciate any suggestions or...

All, I have three Wemo Dimmer (Gen 2) units in my apartment, and 2 Nanoleaf A19 bulbs. After updated to iOS 17 (and all the other updates to my Apple TV, Mac, iPad, homepods, etc), two of my Wemos started intermittently dropping off the home network. The third one was fine. Resetting the...

Has anybody else running an Apple Smart Home noticed this: When I make requests to Siri to control devices from my phone or Apple TV, they work very reliably. Almost never have issues. However, when im walking through my house and utilize the HomePod minis I have set up (3 in a way where I can...

This issue never occurred before last December when I updated to iOS 16.2 and tvOS 16.2. (I also took the optional new HomeKit architecture at this time.) In the Home app, my Apple TV (4K 2nd Gen) is showing status as "Playing" and yet it's shut OFF right now. And sometimes when it's ON...

Hello folks. I couldn't find a correct forum (some general discussion about Apple products ... maybe I am blind) for this topic hence I am posting it here. (in case a Mod finds a better forum, be my guest and I apologize) I moved to the "ecosystem" a few years ago and now I own all the stuff...

I've had a Schlage Sense lock for several years. Its only radio is Bluetooth (BLE), so initially, without a hub, I could only operate while my iPhone was within Bluetooth range. There is always a long delay to operate on arrival, as it takes time for the lock to re-connect via Bluetooth...

Hey all, Here's a fun one. I'm running the latest HomeKit architecture; of course all the devices in my home are on 16.2. Last night I brought home a new HomePod mini & attempted to add it to my home. No go. Not possible. When going through the regular setup screens I was asked to log-in to...

HKSV Streaming Over Cellular Hi Everybody, My issue: HomeKit cameras at ONE of my homes will not stream over cellular data. This issue occurs within the Apple Home App ONLY, and NOT within the native brand name apps (Aqara, Eufy). Recordings work normally, and are able to be viewed over...

I have the Tado smart thermostat and smart radiator valves. I also have some of the Philips Hue motion sensors which have temperature sensors. I have noticed when creating automations if I want a thermostat in a particular room to detect a drop in temperature I can’t then select that thermostat...

Yesterday I updated all my HomePods (6 OG HomePods and 6 HomePod minis) to OS 15.4. Since then, ALL of my Thread accessories have become unresponsive. This includes a number of Nanoleaf Essentials bulbs, Nanoleaf light strips, and an Eve Weather. They all show up as unresponsive in the Home App...

I recently purchased a WiFi 6 Router (TP-Link Archer AX50) and have set up my HomeKit devices with it (HomePod Mini acting as a hub, Philips Hue lights, LG TV and Logitech Circle View camera connected). I am having some major reliability issues, especially with the HomePod not responding, and...

Wondering if anyone has run in to a similar issue and has found a solution. I’ve set an automation for a motion sensor to turn on some lights. This works just fine until I add the time parameter (only trigger between X and Y timeframe), which breaks it. I have to believe it’s something to do...

Is this a common issue anyone is getting? I've got a few automations setup based on time, sunset and "if this switch turns on then do this". Unfortunately they've become completely unreliably lately, since iOS14 I believe, only working probably half of the time. Anyone else getting this or is...

I have been experiencing sudden battery and data drain on my iPhone X and when I looked at the consumption I see that homekit is hungry data app. Has anyone else experienced this behavior? I resetted stats two days ago and homekit used 1.8GB of data since then!

Hi forum, I've been using Homekit for a while now and everything works fine. Now I tried to add my wife to 'my home'. She accepts the invitation, but then something strange occurs: she doesn't show up on my dashboard as a new user (and her invitation icon disappears), and her apple id e-mail...

Hi. Need help. I have a nest (with the Starling) and a few arlos. Can get my activity zones or the face recognition after I upgraded all device including Apple TV in the house, plus remove camera and add them again. Those options don not show up in any of the cameras. Any ideas?

Hi struggling with getting eufycam2c to work properly with hksv. I’m not sure it’s a camera/firmware issue or if it’s HomeKit that isn’t working as expected. the setup is when someone is home, the cameras are off, when everyone is away the cameras are set to record and steam. The thing is...

Hello, I have my Homekit devices using an Apple TV HD (4th generation) working as a Home Hub. Recently after the last 13.5 upgrade on my iPhone and also with the latest upgrade on the Apple TV, it became stuck in Standby within the Home app. I tried solving it by connecting additional Home hubs...

HSV will not record for me. Even with recording (red light) turned on. (Others on Reddit & Logi Circle forums reporting the same.) I tried removing/re-adding all my Logi Circle 2 cameras, even removing/re-adding all my home hubs. Nothing will fix. The issue started a few days ago. Anyone...

I have two homes, each with an AppleTV 4k set as the HomeKit Hub. Things are working pretty good with one exception, the automation around arriving "Home". I would like to have an automation at home #2 that when the first person arrives, the door unlocks and the thermostat turns up, but when I...
