I can't remove Matter Nanoleaf Lightbulb from my home.

The lightbulb in question stopped working as it should after an update. I thought removing it and then adding it again to Home would work, but it didn't. I then followed all the steps from Nanoleaf regarding a factory reset and tried re-adding the light to Home. Before I attempted to re-add the light, it shows as a nearby device. When I attempt to re-add the light to Home (after previously removing it) I get a "Device already exists in Home" error. I can't delete the device from Home. Now I have a light that I can only use with the Nanoleaf app - with no voice control or automation. I have many devices from many manufacturers with many scenes and automations, so I hope deleting my Home isn't the only solution.

Not sure if you got this fixed but I had the same problem. In a nutshell you need to get the broken device removed from your Matter accessories (and thereby keychain). To do this, go into settings on your iPhone / iPad and scroll down to Matter Accessories. Find the device (need to know serial number) click on it and choose Remove Accessory.


Hope that helps.
