I'm using LIFX switches and they are connected to HA locally (using the HomeKit integration, which does not require a HomeKit, just an apple iPhone so that you can get the codes). There is a bit of initial setup involved that I wasn't a fan of, but I like the way they look and feel, and overall they work really well! You don't need to have LIFX bulbs either, any smart or dumb bulbs would work fine. A few minor gripes I have: - They don't come in 1-gang designs, smallest is 2-gang - If you disable a button it's not really obvious to the user, it still flashes and vibrates when they press it …

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
