Invitation to home app does not arrive

I've read msgs here about this issue from Januari 2023. Any new insights on this after 2 months?

My home app didn't function properly, so we decided to delete the profile in my account and my husband wanted to invite me again. However, the invitation never arrived. We've tried several times and also tried one of the workarounds mentioned in this forum: delete Home app totally and using HomeKit reset mobile config profile to wipe out HomeKit data and then reinstall. Still no luck :-( invitation doesn't arrive.

So now I'm lost... can't turn on/off our lights or music.

This is been going on for quite some time, I'd think there must be a solution by now!?

Hello josjeK,

To help resolve the issue, let's make sure all members that will be using the Home app has followed the steps in the article here: Upgrade to the new Home architecture

Before you upgrade

* Update your iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, HomePod, and Apple Watch to the latest software. Any device that is connected to an upgraded home and not running the latest software will lose access to the home until the device is updated. This includes people that you invite to control your home.

* A home hub, such as an Apple TV or HomePod, is required to share control of your home and to receive Home notifications on the new Home architecture. iPad is not supported as a home hub on the new Home architecture.

Upgrade in the Home app

Follow these steps to upgrade any homes you set up to the new Home architecture. All of the homes that you own are upgraded at the same time.

1. Open the Home app on your iPhone or iPad running the latest version of iOS or iPadOS, or Mac running the latest version of macOS.

2. Tap or click the More button .

3. Select Home Settings . If you own multiple homes, choose one, then select Home Settings .
