I am wondering, whether I am the only one dealing with this:
I have had this off and on over the past six weeks at least. Sometimes they call come back spontaneously without any obvious correlation with another event in my environment. Sometimes it helps to reboot my Apple TVs (which act as Home hubs), but I am wondering, whether I killed my Home app for good, when I restored both my Apple TVs to factory settings and set them up from scratch (using settings transferred from my iPhone during the setup process).
Maybe it’s the HomePods mini, which started acting up first, by refusing to executed commands like, “Hey Siri, turn on the basement lights!” This is a real problem, as one of our cars does not have a garage door opener inside and relies on the drive or a passenger opening and closing the garage door with a “Hey Siri” command.
All accessories work with their individual apps: IKEA Home Smart, Lutron Caseta, Chamberlain myQ. So it’s not a network thing. It’s a HomeKit thing, for sure. The HomePods mini also have been reset to factory settings and set up from scratch, multiple times.
Is anyone else experiencing something similar? My money is on a bug in a recent update to tvOS or HomePodOS, or whatever it‘s called. AppleCare advisors don’t know, probably because they haven’t been told by Apple.
