HomeKit - Scene not working
Hello all,
I have found an issue where scenes that are setup in the Lutron app are not reading/writing to the HomeKit database. Accessories (Caseta dimmers), rooms and zones are working fine.
I also have the "Home" app by Matthias Hochgatterer installed so that I can run other (non Lutron) HomeKit devices. Everything replicates between Home app and Lutron app on both my iPhone and my iPad. Everything that is except the scenes.
As a test I installed the Elgato Eve app and the scenes that I made in Home show up, and visa versa. So this tells me that the Lutron app is that problem.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Lutron Scenes and Homekit
We absolutely love Lutron lighting control. We control our home almost exclusively with scenes. I have read that Lutron does not share scene information with Homekit. Without scene support, homekit is worthless for lighting. Sure, I can tell Siri to turn on or off the den chandelier but I haven't used that individual button in years. I want to say "Siri, let's watch TV" to activate Watch TV scene or "Siri I'm going to bed" for the goodnight scene. I currently control 89 devises and it is not practical to control individual lights. Any updates on this? Have I missed something?
