Hey there @bdraco, mind taking a look at this issue as it has been labeled with an integration (homekit) you are listed as a code owner for? Thanks!

Code owner commands

Code owners of `homekit` can trigger bot actions by commenting: - `@home-assistant close` Closes the issue. - `@home-assistant rename Awesome new title` Renames the issue. - `@home-assistant reopen` Reopen the issue. - `@home-assistant unassign homekit` Removes the current integration label and assignees on the issue, add the integration domain after the command.

Is there any news on this?

I've recently brought full set of lamps and remotes from IKEA, now learning (for the 3rd time in my life during last ~10 years) the Home Assistant and just realized that Dirigera is not actually supported... This is explicitly mentioned at https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/tradfri/ But some people in a comments for other issues are saying they managed get it working. Can someone shed a light what is the current status? All I getting is

Update: IKEA Dirigera hub was connected via HomeKit integration PS: There is no need in iPhone for this

[eriknaslund]

So I had this problem before, but I managed to solve it.

While there's no direct support for IKEA Dirigera, the Apple HomeKit support seems to do the trick, at least for me. If I check "Settings -> HomeKit Device" I can see all the devices that are connected to my Dirigera hub there. I'm afraid I don't remember if I did any specific setup, because this was done a long time ago.

One thing that tripped me up for an embarrassingly long time was the fact that I needed to restart Home Assistant after adding a new device (I paired it via the IKEA App). No restart -> no new devices showing up in HA! This wasn't obvious to me at all.
