HomeKit isn’t connecting to my vizio tv nor any other device.

HomeKit isn’t connecting to my vizio tv nor any other device. The area code populates on the television to link it, but I get an error code when I try to connect to the viZio

Is anyone else having this problem?

Hi there romar274,


It sounds like you're unable to add any accessories to the Home app, including your Vizio TV. We're glad you've joined us in Apple Support Communities, and we can provide some guidance. 


To start, you'll want to make sure that your accessories support HomeKit or AirPlay 2. The compatible VIZIO models are as follows:


  • "VIZIO OLED (2020)*
  • VIZIO P-Series Quantum X (2019, 2020)*
  • VIZIO P-Series Quantum (2018, 2019, 2020)*
  • VIZIO P-Series (2016, 2017, 2018)
  • VIZIO M-Series Quantum (2019, 2020)*
  • VIZIO M-Series (2016, 2017, 2018)
  • VIZIO E-Series (2016, 2017, and 2018 UHD models)
  • VIZIO V-Series (2019, 2020)*
  • VIZIO D-Series (2018, 2019)"


Have a look at this link to learn which devices are compatible:


iOS - Home Accessories - Apple


If your TV and other devices appear to be compatible, you'll want to follow the remaining guidance in the 'If you can't add an accessory' section of this support article:


Add a HomeKit accessory to the Home app


We hope this information is helpful. Let us know how it goes.


Cheers.
