Question

I want automatic window shades that work with Apple HomeKit. Any suggestions?

I'd like to start using the Home app on my iPhone. I know I have to start with an Apple TV 4th Gen. which I have but now I want to start buying products that are compatible. So far, I have a thermostat, smoke/CO alarms, front door locks, and lights. I really want to find automatic shades for all the windows. I know the HunterDouglas PowerView works with Nest and Logitech but I can't seem to find out if they work with apple home. Does anyone know of a good shade that is automatic and will work with Siri?

Thanks so much.

MacBook Pro, iOS 10.2.1

Lutron and Serena both appear to make HomeKit enabled products.

I didn't spend a lot of time reading this article but it looks as if it may be helpful:

Basically, I just googled "apple homekit enabled shades".

Also, if you see a product you like, call their customer service line and ask.
