Home app not recognizing non-Apple devices

That’s great to hear, kenebob! We’re glad your accessories and Siri are not working together again.

Also, we’d love to say “yeah, that’s it!” regarding your iPad being on a different Wi-Fi network, but we have no information to back that up with. However, we would expect that behavior if you were trying to use your iPad to control your accessories.

If the issue returns, please reach out again and we’ll take a closer look.

All the best.

Hi there kenebob,

We agree, that is unexpected to occur with your Home app devices, and we'd like to help.

You mentioned that Siri also has an issue with controlling those devices, but what occurs when you try?

Have you been able to remove/add one of your devices to the Home app? This link shows how to Add a HomeKit accessory to the Home app.

Any recent changes to the device you use as the home hub? For reference, this link shows how to Set up your HomePod, HomePod mini, Apple TV, or iPad as a home hub.

Cheers!
