`light`	Light
`switch`	Switch or outlet
`cover`	Blind, garage door, window or door
`climate`	Thermostat
`lock`	Lock	Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode
`camera`	Camera	Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode
`alarm_control_panel`	Security system
`binary_sensor`	Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…)
`sensor`	Sensor (temperature, humidity, air quality…)
`button`	Button (as a switch)

1 report below say how a device from this integration behaves in the Home app.

What people report

Vivint panels (Sky Control, Smart Hub) work via the cloud; older Go! Control panels do not. Doorbell press is an event/device trigger, not a sensor, so HomeKit doesn't see a doorbell.

Vivint Sky Control panel	Works Cloud		Supported by integration Saved copy Will this integration work with the new panel? The only panels this doesn't work with are the older Go! Control panels. It works with the Sky Control, which you currently have, and the Smart Hub which is what you'll be getting I'm guessing. Basically, as long as you login with the current Vivint app and not the Vivint Classic app, and not some yet released newer app, this integration _should_ work. > Will I have to create a new integration?

Vivint Doorbell Camera	Partly works Cloud	Partly in Home Camera not recognized as doorbell; link motion sensor for notifications	Doorbell press only as event/device trigger, no sensor entity Saved copy Is it possible to expose the Vivint doorbell camera button as a separate entity in Home Assistant? I currently have my doorbell and other Vivint cameras running through Scrypted into HomeKit which is lighting fast, but there's no way to detect the doorbell button press (uses local RTSP stream only) so I don't have any notifications from that. Would be awesome to have the doorbell button press as a standalone entity so I can get notifications into my HA setup and use that for other stuff. Would be great if do-able, thank you so much for your work on this! Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23.	Issue #80 · 2023-02
