Is anyone able to confirm that 16.3 fixes the Matter connectivity issue(s) for Eve products (Energy / Door & Window Sensors)?
It does not. 5 out of 6 of my door sensors haven't worked for four weeks and I am up-to-date with 16.3 on everything

I am hoping that 16.3 fixes the issues I'm having (I updated to 16.2 and the new architecture before it was pulled). So far, though, it's not showing up as available for either my HomePods or Apple TVs.Is anyone able to confirm that 16.3 fixes the Matter connectivity issue(s) for Eve products (Energy / Door & Window Sensors)?
16.3 sadly hasn’t fixed anything for me in HomeKit as it is still horribly broken!I am hoping that 16.3 fixes the issues I'm having (I updated to 16.2 and the new architecture before it was pulled). So far, though, it's not showing up as available for either my HomePods or Apple TVs.

Noticed that the latest software has not been released this morning (GMT), hopefully Apple are still liaising with the HomeKit suppliers ensuring that there are no connectivity issues prior to the next release...if Carlsberg do software!tvOS and HomePod OS 16.3 haven’t been released yet.

Had high hopes for 16.3 to resolve the Eve Matter devices, now I am giving up...had enough of this nonsense!
I think I have found the culprit (at least at my end!)...it was the Apple TV (I think!)Following Eve support engineers on the beta program, I removed the offending matter devices from HomeKit, reset them, and added them again using the matter codes. Two days and counting and all okay… So far.
After adding back the resident, HomeKit finally can detect again that all home members have left the home and triggers video recording.
But does it actually record? My switches to video recording when I leave, but then never records anything.
I did get it to record something under 16.3 by restarting my HomePod Mini, which made my Apple TV 4K the hub (didn’t have to restart the ATV), but I haven’t tested to see how long that lasts. Under 16.2, recording would stop working in under 15 minutes requiring a restart of all the Home hubs.
Just wondering, what actual events have you got your cameras set to record? Might be worth uploading some screenshots for us to look at (of your record settings)
All motion or certain kinds?
The recording is working, I set it to record whenever it detects movement of a pet, so it captured a few clips of my cat moving around already when I was at work.But does it actually record? My switches to video recording when I leave, but then never records anything.

I guess the prompt to update wouldn't be there anymore once you've updated.How can you tell if you are on the new architecture? I think I updated but it took only a second or two and there was no confirmation that the update worked and there is no way to check if you have updated. Everything works exactly as it did before. I don't notice any difference one way or the other. What am I missing?
This new architecture has nothing to do with Matter. I use Philips Hue for all my lighting and no issues at all on the new architecture.I guess the prompt to update wouldn't be there anymore once you've updated.
I'm hesitant to do so as I believe the Philips Hue lighting still isn't Matter compatible? It's what I mainly use for 3rd party accessories.
Same. I updated everything to the newest architecture and my Hue lights seem to actually respond faster now. So there are seemingly benefits for Hue users too.This new architecture has nothing to do with Matter. I use Philips Hue for all my lighting and no issues at all on the new architecture.
