Homekit hub (Apple TV) offline notifications with a twist

Apple TV 4k

Two users in the home


Intermittently throughout the day I get notifications on my iPhone, that the hub goes off-line and then back online.


The twist: Only I am getting these notifications. My notification settings are identical to the other user.


How could they possibly be somehow user specific if the home is the same?

I have found no way to change the notification settings for this event, in the home app, or notification settings on the iPhone. I would prefer not to get them, since the disconnects are only a few minutes.

Hey there kylieo,


It's possible the other device has their Home settings adjusted a bit differently. You can choose how the notifications are set up by following the steps below:


1. Open the Home app.
2. On an iPhone or iPad, tap an accessory. On a Mac, click an accessory.
3. Scroll down and select Status and Notifications. Turn on Activity Notifications, then choose from these options.
• Time: Set a time that you want to get alerts for your accessory.
• People: Get alerts for the accessory when you or someone arrives or leaves your house. If you choose this option, you need to set up a home hub and make sure that everyone who can control your home has My Location set to their primary iPhone or iPad and Share My Location turned on in Settings > [your name] > Find My.
4. Tap or click BackBackin the upper-left corner, then Done.

To see notifications that you set up in the Home app on more than one device, you need to set up notifications on each device
