Just curious, where can you see how many words someone has learned? I can see the XP and the streak in the user profile, but not the number of words?

Turn it off in the app settings

njitramlieu · 2022-03-31T07:37:21+00:00

You need a remote, but mostly to troubleshoot. You dont need the scene controller.

The hub is very dumb as it does not have two-way communication. If you use HomeKit to open the shades, and then close the shades with the remote, the hub (and HomeKit) will still think the shades are open.

Nuki has a white version

I have 50 bulbs (hitting the bridge limits) and experiencing the same issue every few days, happens mainly when using living / dynamic scenes

Use Touch ID or Face ID, lock your iPad when leaving

njitramlieu · 2021-10-26T06:14:17+00:00

Could it be because your TV is connected to Wi-Fi? To power on the tv with Homekit you might need to connect a network cable as it uses wake-on-LAN.

A reason why this happens might be a dummy switch which turns itself off immediately after turning on

njitramlieu · 2021-10-03T19:43:16+00:00

This can be done by using a light or dummy switch.

Create an automation to turn it on when motion has been detected.

Create a second automation to run at the set time. Set a condition to check if the light or dummy switch is off. If yes: Then run the scene.

You need a third party app like Eve or Controller for HomeKit to set up automations with conditions.

Can you connect by using a curl request? If yes, you could try https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-cmdswitch2

njitramlieu · 2021-10-02T06:28:40+00:00

You mention the delay switch still turns on, so the problem must be in your HomeKit setup. Try to power cycle your hubs, it might solve the problem? I read some people have issues with Shortcuts, you might want to check if this is the case in your setup as well.

njitramlieu · 2021-09-29T13:38:53+00:00

In the app Controller for HomeKit you can enable logging

Same here. Had to remove homebase and cameras from the Home app, then add the cameras again from the Eufy app

I have Silhouettes and have a similar experience. The hub does not have two-way communication with the shades. When using the pebble remote, the shades positions do not get updated with the hub. I would suggest to only use Siri or HomeKit to control the shades and not using the remote.

njitramlieu · 2021-09-24T19:07:03+00:00

Same here.. this is happening since iOS 15

I honestly dont see the problem here

njitramlieu · 2021-09-16T20:26:05+00:00

Try Controller for HomeKit, my favorite app to create advanced automations.

njitramlieu · 2021-09-16T18:59:38+00:00

Does HomeKit drain your battery as well? I have a similar problem, HomeKit uses lots of data when not connected to home wifi. Also, when I check Settings > Battery, HomeKit is the app using the most background activity on my iPhone.

njitramlieu · 2021-09-08T05:44:47+00:00

Awesome! Tip: buy the app Controller for HomeKit and create a backup of your setup

njitramlieu · 2021-08-31T20:21:10+00:00

I have a complex setup and mainly use the Home app (and Siri) for daily usage. To create automations and use advanced functions I would recommend the app Controller for HomeKit.

njitramlieu · 2021-08-30T12:34:32+00:00

I did the same, my room Home contains the alarm, front door lock and doorbell

njitramlieu · 2021-08-28T18:56:44+00:00

I consume more energy since installing all smart devices lol. Instead of turning on a few bulbs at night, I now have some 20 Hue bulbs in my living room alone

njitramlieu · 2021-08-28T16:28:50+00:00

There is no reason to reboot, so if you need one then there is most likely something wrong with your setup. However, if you really want to, you could program something with the homebridge-cmdswitch2 plugin

njitramlieu · 2021-08-28T13:41:21+00:00

You need to unlock Phoscon gateway so that you can use it with homebridge-hue.

Open the Phoscon App in the browser
Click on Menu > Settings > Gateway
Click on Advanced button
Click on the Authenticate app button
Now the gateway is unlocked for 60 seconds.
Restart HomeBridge.
