Well it's not all rosy: The Axis smart shade is correctly visible in HomeKit, you can correctly raise and lower the shade, including via automations, but after you do that and the shade does its thing its status doesn't update in Homekit.
If you restart home bridge, the correct status is then reported.
Its a bug in the way this deals with Window Shades - I have exactly the same issue with my Ikea Fyrtur blinds.... Would love to get this working, otherwise I'll have to hook up Tradfri to my blinds and do it that way - which I don't really want to do
for what it's worth, there's some kind of a reconciliation step that runs every hour looks like, so the state is eventually shown correctly on the HomeKit side
This is a hard one for me as Shades are one of the only items I don't have.
I'm about to build my own in the next week so I will have more hands-on experience soon with the code logic
I will be curious to hear how that goes.. I was looking in that direction but it seems fairly involved still given the pieces available..
I am happy to report I am able to see and control Axis Smart Shades from HomeKit via home bridge and a smart things hub
