Apple Homekit Security Workaround? #644

Closed dzz5hj closed 7 months ago

dzz5hj commented 9 months ago

Apple Homekit seems to have additional security around automation for things like garage doors and door locks that require the user to interact with the automation to agree that it should be run - "Are you sure that you want to run XXXXX automation". The example automation that I'm currently working with is a geofence for unlocking and locking the front door but I need to interact with that automation due to Apple's security.

Other plugins have worked around this by adding a simple "switch" in the plugin that's tied to the device like a garage door that opens/closes the door but because it's a simple switch to Apple, it doesn't require the user interaction for the automation to run.
