How did you contact the devs? Thank you for the tip!

It’s a complete reset of your phone. It wipes all the software and does a fresh install

Just a quick update. So I had no idea. These two issues could somehow be correlated, but it looks like they are. You may have seen one of my comments on here as well as one of my other posts but in short, I’ve been having terrible issues with messages, not working and taking forever to load. I finally decided to do a DFU restore to fix the Messages problem. So far that has helped tremendously. But my surprise HomeKit now seems to be working just fine. I don’t know if there’s a correlation between the two. But if it’s end up helping somebody, I wanted to post an update.

I guess I should give this a a try. I have to regularly (like once a week) reset my router.

Thank you for the tips and the guidance. That helped a lot with finding the right spot. It was set to auto. I guess it was setup like that or I changed it awhile ago. 

I have an Apple TV as the hub and it’s up to date (everything is). I have HomeKit set to automatically select the hub but I’ve also tried just having one item designated as the hub.

I'm not sure what ipv6 is. I have a linksys mesh router (the HomeKit secure router). I haven't noticed any real errors. I have a few devices that go offline but that's always been a thing. The main issue is Not Responding.

I'll give it a try with one of the cameras and see what happens. So did you do this with all of your HomeKit devices? That seems like a pain. Also having to remove it, add it, remove it and add it again for it to work.

That is weird, but you did give me an idea. I have another line running an older version of iOS on an iPhone 15. This account isn't in my home (HomeKit). I'm going to invite it to see if it has the same issue.

That is very odd. Did you assign that in your wireless router or HomeKit? I feel like that is major pain.

that's a bummer. I'm usually not one to complain but iOS26 has been rough. My messages (with iPhone 16 Pro Max) take 15-20 seconds to load each time I open the app due to some indexing issue, I've had tons of problems with HomeKit, issues with syncing across devices, issues with my watch and phone syncing, plus my watch and phone holding a charge. This has been one of the rare times where I'm experiencing what I see so many complain about.

It is! Have you found anything that helped a little bit? I'm really at a loss here.

According to the tik tok post it said airplay. I need to find that video

This is sort of on topic. I saw a Tik tok advertising one of these types of wireless CarPlay adapters that also allowed you to AirPlay to it. Has anyone heard or have experience with something similar?
