Hi henri287,


Thank you for participating in the Apple Support Communities. If you are trying to share control of your home, here are a few things to help: Share control of your home - Apple Support


- To invite people to control your home while you're away and edit permissions for them, you need to set up a home hub. If you don't have a home hub set up, you can only invite people when you're home and connected to your home Wi-Fi network. Matter-enabled accessories require a home hub, such as Apple TV 4K or HomePod mini.
- If Home has been upgraded to the new Home architecture, you must set up a home hub to share control of your home.
- You and the people you invite need the latest version of iOS, iPadOS, or macOS.
- Make sure that you and the people you invite are signed in to iCloud on iPhone, iPad, or Mac. In iCloud settings, turn on Home.
- Make sure that you and the people you invite haven't blocked each other's phone number or Apple ID.


Have a great day.
