Can you tell me what Siri commands I can use for Nest Protect and also Nest Thermostat please?

As for the thermostat, first off you need to make sure you set the names appropriately in HomeKit. The thermostat device itself has a name and the thermostat service has a name. Depending on which you tell Siri will tell you a diff temp. The service can always be referred to as "thermostat".

To get the current temperature: (air temp, not target temp)

Here are a few I have been successfully using. I have three Nest Thermostats in the house named Bedroom, Upstairs and Downstairs.

There will be others I haven't discovered yet.

"What is the humidity?" will get the current humidity at the station.

I cant seem to get home/away working with this.

Worked for me, because when I say "Turn the thermostat on" it changes to "auto" mode instead of what I had it last set to.
