Apple HomeKit Integration

@gordonmeyer

You keep repeating $10 a month as if it were fact. It is not. The service does not even exist yet! Please stop spreading misinformation.

The bottom line is that when Wyze is able to support the highly secure HomeKit infrastructure people will decide if it’s want they want. When that will be and what the additional charges will be (if any) is completely unknown.

Are you even serious!?

@gordonmeyer

Nothing is official as none of this has been released, Prices, particularly for storage, do tend to fall over time. And again, given that the Wyze camera that works with HomeKit doesn’t exist, you have no way of knowing what the costs are. So yes, you are just making stuff up.

Your own words…
Wow! I’m speechless!

And then…and then, you try to change the subject to something that I said about hardware…

[kboggs1]

Bye…for real…bye.

Any interest in just Apple TV App to view the camera feeds without HomeKit Integrations? The only feature I really care about myself.

[gregmelanson]

Matt6 I think that’s the best solution I’ve heard yet. Well done sir.

Thank you and Best Regards,

Greg

Agreed, The next best thing would be an Apple TV App and perhaps ios Shortcuts integration?

@dfcrichardson @gregmelanson @matt6

There’s a separate #wishlist topic for just that:

AppleTV app

Would love to be able to check in on my WyzeCams on AppleTV. iOS apps already exist, so tvOS shouldn’t be too much of a stretch…

[kboggs1]

PLEASE get Wyze Bulbs to work with HomeKit! If nothing else…the bulbs!

It would be great to at least see contact sensor status in the Apple Home and create automations from it.

I don’t really care about using HomeKit for video but it would be nice to control the cameras. Like enabling and disabling them when I leave or arrive home. And maybe get motion and sound events out of the cameras too.

I’d replace all my wyze stuff if new products had homekit compatibility.

[doug.a.reed]

This is way past due! Want to sell more products? Support more platforms!

[WyzeGwendolyn]

We tried for it. We’re not giving up but there is a limitation with the current hardware. Here’s the latest update:

Apple HomeKit Integration

Update time on HomeKit: We are still investigating the work required to provide HomeKit compatibility for Wyze Bulb and Wyze Sense products. Unfortunately, we have completed the analysis for cameras and determined that we will not be able to bring HomeKit to the current generation of our products (Cam v1 & v2 and Pan). We recognize the privacy and security that HomeKit Secure Video provides to Apple customers and are excited about potential integration with our future products using local proc…

So maybe for the extra line of cameras? I’m happy to at least hear some news from you. Unlike companies that promise HomeKit integration and never give an update on the matter

[WyzeGwendolyn]

It’s possible that the upcoming camera also won’t be able to make that work. But we are going to keep an eye out for opportunities for enabling HomeKit.

We had to keep quiet for a while as we tried to make this a reality and were in discussions with the HomeKit team but we want to be upfront with our community members.

[doug.a.reed]

Even if the cameras can’t be integrated with Homekit, integration of Wyze Sense and Wyze plug would be great!

[kboggs1]

And the Bulbs! The bulbs, the bulbs, the bulbs!

[Loki]

The cameras are integrated (to a good extent) with Wyze Sense, the bulbs and will be the plugs through the app’s Shortcuts feature. Read more about it by clicking the Support link, top right.

[kboggs1]

This topic is about HomeKit integration.

[Loki]

@kboggs1 The forum takes a little getting used to. My reply was to to doug.a.reed as shown here:

However, if this gets too off topic, we will redirect it.

[kboggs1]

I am used to it. But, thanks.
I know that you were replying to Doug. Doug was talking about HomeKit. You aren’t.
You’re passive-aggressive, and, shouldn’t be a moderator. Gwendolyn is doing a fine job on her own.

[Loki]

I did in fact misread Doug’s post, thinking he was asking about integrating the cameras with Sense/Plug rather than Sense/Plug with Homekit.
