Apple iOS Homekit integration

Hi, Is there any plans to allow integration with Apple HomeKit? It would allow facilitating lots of data that comes from phones without the need for coding (e.g. geofencing, geolocation which is made available through the Home Kit app to other apps, this woudl eb as simple as allowing the app to read the GPS data from the phone, which is not available right now)

Thanks Enrico.

However, my question was : can we launch a bOS scenes or tasks through geofencing. I want to avoid recreate those in the "shortcut app" and beneficiate from my more complex existing tasks. Any tip for that ?

hello

once you have set the gate opening command in KNX and in Home Kit, if you use the "Apple Shortcuts app" you can set automation with the position of the iPhone. for example 500 meters from the home position it is activated.

Hi All,

Now that Apple HomeKit is integrated and working well, I would like to add some tasks to be triggered by geofencing info. Does someone know how to do it (if possible) ? To be a bit more specific, I don't want to get the scene in HomeKit but in bOS and simply triggered from HomeKit...

Any info to start with will be welcome :-)

Hello,

With KNX, I don't get the status for lamps.

They still appears as off, even if the toggle is working we I click on the lamp.

And I confirm that the blind direction are inverted :)

Edit: Afer I close and lanch again the Home App, the status are working now... 
It's weird because I tried 4 times yesterday, and I never had the status working...

However, blind's direction is still inverted.

A new question: is it normal that we can't add several EndPoints?

What is the best way when we want to add new things (lamps, blinds, etc.)?

Thank you :)

Hello,


I am using HomeKit in the API but when I add screens (window covering) they are reversed, is there a way to set the direction? Now up is down and down is up.

Hello,

still sorting out the legal matters for our official publish of the documentation and integration. Hopefully it won't take too long, for now there is no ETA (Apple...). Apologies for the delays.

Best regards.
