WorksRecognised by HomeKit via Homebridge easily
Saved copy
Hi, I've recently tried to migrate from Alexa (with inbuilt Zigbee) over to HomeKit. I've used Homebridge to help HomeKit recognise my Ring camera and TP link plugs - all very easy. But I can't understand what I need to do to connect to my Tradfri bulbs. I've never had a separate hub because the Alex Echo devise found the bulbs itself but I can't seem to find a plug-in that works for Homebridge. I'm relatively new to this and not good at any manual coding etc. Any help much appreciated. Cheers

ScryptedWorksRecommended Scrypted over Homebridge for Ring; gives HKSV

If you intend to use HomeBridge to be able to get your ring camera into HomeKit. You’ll have a better experience using Scryted instead of HomeBridge. With Scryted you get the “benefits” of HKSV (HomeKit Secure Video)

Partly worksLive view hit or miss; snapshots and motion fine; mesh network improved it

It’s hit or miss for me. At this point I generally only use it for motion detection and snapshots. That said, after I beefed up my home network by adding mesh routers all around, the failure rate has dropped and live feed usually connects very quickly.

Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
