Siri thinks the speakers are lights #197

Closed danberger closed 2 years ago

danberger commented 2 years ago

Hey there,

Since installing the plugin, when I give siri voice commands (eg turn off/on lights in kitchen), she tries to turn off/on the speakers… and thus play music.

any way to work around this?

Thank you for all that you do.

Don’t expose the speakers as Lightbulb services, by changing the service setting in config.json. Define HomeKit scenes (in Eve) if you want to control them from Siri.

Thank you. I moved them to a switch.

Define HomeKit scenes (in Eve) if you want to control them from Siri.

Can you explain what you mean here?

ebaauw commented 2 years ago

Siri doesn't support custom services and characteristics (and not even all standard characteristics). To be able to set these from Siri, create a HomeKit scene in Eve (or another HomeKit app that does support them) and recall that scene from Siri.

Got it. Thank you. 🫡
