Home Accessories on Home app

Hello there

Anyone knows how I can display all accessories or add them on the Home homepage app, by any chance? Id like the little ties for each accessories.

Putting it more simply, I’d like to add my accessories to Favourites but the toggle button is missing as explained in step 7:

How to Customize Your HomeKit Setup With Favorites

In Apple's Home app, you can set particular HomeKit scenes and accessories as "Favorites" so that you can access them quickly and easily...

You should be able to long press the accessory tile and there should be a toggle for “add to favorites.”

For sensors though, like Temp, Humidity, CO, etc, , Apple removed them as tiles and placed them in the status bar at the top. Just make sure those are toggles on for “Status and Notifications” > “Include In Home Status”

I see, thanks. That's a pity. I called Apple and they told me the same thing or I can send a feedback to Apple...Maybe there is a better app than Home? Any recommendations?

I’m using Eve Room to get what I wanted.

Came to recommend Eve. The Eve app automations are more robust as well. There’s also Controller for HomeKit and Home+ but those are paid apps.

So I managed to put them in Favourites in the Home app for MacOS...but of course it doesn't show on my iPad and iPhone. This is very weird.

Anyone knows if we can put sensors as favourite in the new Home app coming with iOS16, by any chance?
