Q: HomeKit menu missing from settings

I'm trying to get my Philips Hue lights to work via Siri, or the HomeKit app when I'm not on my wifi network. I've found some reference material that shows I need to allow remote access through the HomeKit section in my settings app, but it isn't there.

Any guidance or advice is appreciated.

I'm experiencing the same. My Apple TV is connected in the Home-app (under "Home Hubs"), but my lights are not responding. The only entry in settings is Privacy > HomeKit.

Waiting for the final release tomorrow to see if it's just missing.

You posted this in the El Capitan forum. I expect you may get more applicable answers by posting in the iPhone forum or the Apple TV forum.
