iOS 16 HomeKit automations not triggering anymore?
Hi
Anyone else have the issue that since iOS 16 several home automations will stop working? In my case, I have lights and scenes that stopped triggering permanently although they are enabled. Likewise I have an eve room sensor that stopped turning up/down the heating or on/off a wall plug to control humidity. First I thought it was related to rules with geofencing enabled, but this seems not the only issue. Then I discovered rules impacted with time constraints. And finally it degraded to just plain not working for some of my rules. All my eve thermostats, eve room and some of the lights have line of sight to all but the HomePod minis. Other lights have the opposite or no line of sight. In any case, iOS 16 has been devastating to the HomeKit experience in my case and I hope to find an answer here. I operate 16 lights, 5 wall plugs, 3 eve thermostats and 1 eve room sensor since 2017. I refuse to try (over and over) anything that costs me a day of my life (eg: full reset).
i tried, but did not improve anything:
- update my 3 HomePods 2018
- update my 2 HomePod mini
- update my Apple tv
- check eve firmware up to date
- remove geofencing from automation
- remove time constraints from automation
- remove and re-add device in automation
i have had temporary success with:
- delete automation and recreate it (works with my lights (hue), not with eve (thread?))
I’m at a loss. Winter is here and my heating setup is dysfunctional. Any help welcome….
ps: why is HomeKit not available as a topic on community?
