Absolutely. Totally agree... But if the Pico was exposed to be able to use the center button for a scene (I know about the workaround) or even as a wireless remote like the Hue dimmer would be cool. I mean, it’s no different than the Hue dimmer other than not having the ability to assign the buttons in HomeKit. Same type of device.Well there isn’t a reason for the remote to connect to HomeKit. It just controls something. It makes more sense to have HomeKit control the something rather than the remote that controls the something.

This guy can definitely explain it better which is where I got it from lol. I highly recommend following him on YouTube. Puts out fantastic HomeKit related content every Sunday.Workaround? Can you share? I have a few picos sitting in a drawer doing nothing. I wouldn’t mind putting them to use.
He’s got some very great past videos on automations too. Guy is a master at them.Thank you. Just subscribed.
Edit: just watched the video. That’s really slick!
Yeah, I used to use the Leviton Decora but they drop from WiFi way too often so I’m done with them. I’m happy with the Lutron system so far. Just wish the hub allowed more than 75 devices. If I outfit my whole house, which I plan on doing, I’ll be over the limit. Hope two Hubs can be stitched together by HomeKit.I have a Caseta Dimmer and it works GREAT with HomeKit. I have different scenes with varying brightness and we use them all the time. I even have one called Nightlight but it won’t dim down very low but low enough so we can leave it on and you can see enough to get around. The Lutron works WAY better than the Wemo, we won’t be buying any more of those, too finicky
