The controls for WLED show up fine in Home App, but do not show in any other control apps. Is this able to be done?

This plugin is currently only designed to be used in the Home App. Due it is a Homebridge Plugin I do not think so that it is possible to be shown at other apps.

It should be able to show in companion apps since data is pulled from the Home app. All my other accessories that I run through Homebridge (and I have a ton across about 12 plug-ins) will show in Eve, Home+, etc. The accessories from this app and my Denon/Marantz app are the only ones that will not show in others.

I am a noob at how this stuff works on a programming side so I am not saying it can be done, just saying it does work on others.

Great app though. I thank you for the time it takes to build something like this for the benefit of others!

Thanks, Shaun

I have no other plugins behaves like this. As it's in the home app it should be shown in other apps (i.e. elegato eve in my case) that use Apple's HomeKit infrastructure.

As mentioned before: great plugin. Really! - with only this quirk.

Is there any way to get around this behaviour?
