Scenes regularly disappear from Home.app when using Scenecuts (making the shortcuts unusable) #50

I'm using a new Mac (M1 Pro chip) as of a few weeks ago, and have been encountering some issues running Scenecuts. The scenes I've created through Home.app (either on macOS or iOS) regularly disappear (i.e. are somehow deleted), making the shortcuts on Scenecuts — when activated from the menu bar — unusable. I suspect this has to do with how your app interacts with macOS since I don't recall having this issue when it's not running.

I'll look into this! Let me know if you can provide anymore details. I haven't seen this before.

Thank you, it seems to happen every time I restart my Mac. Very strange. Happy to provide more details though not sure what would help — let me know if you have something more specific in mind.

Checking in a few months later: I ended up deleting the app which "solved" the issue for me. My HomeKit scenes no longer disappear from the native Home app. It's too bad because I really enjoyed using Scenecuts. In the meantime I've set up menu bar shortcuts to trigger the scenes in a similar way as your app did (good enough for me).
