HA's Homekit Bridge quits reporting entities state in Bridge Mode to Homekit after a couple of updates #127021

Open AAfetisov opened 1 month ago

AAfetisov commented 1 month ago

The problem

  1. Create a boolean helper in HA.

  2. Expose it to Homekit as a bridge(not accessory). (Go to Homekit Bridge integration, Create new)

  3. Add it on your iPhone to your home.

clicking this boolean in Homekit -> Works just fine and HA reflects it's state really well. clicking this boolean in HA only works a couple of times, then it stops working -> The boolean's state is not reflected in Homekit any more(watch the first video)

HA devices exposed in accessory mode work great. Real homekit devices connected directly to Homekit have their state reflected great.

Please don't tell me "works as intended" because the bridge mode is a useless garbage in the current form. Tested this on 3 different wifi networks with different network equipment.
