The UI of the Homekit app needs to show up on the Apple TV for it to be a real home hub. It has limited options in control centre and only seems to function for cameras and automations. I'd like to see all my accessories listed and my rooms. That way I could turn on and off lights in any room etc.

Why do I not see the homekit widget in command center?

Hi
I have to say, You are brilliant.
Best video ever. as I needed the info to view home cameras.
Thanks

Can you still use it and set everything up with a non-apple phone? Does this just add steps? Do you lose functionality if your phone is non-apple?

🤔It appears that my Apple TV is my hub but I didn’t get that “Home” icon when I opened the Control Center menu.🤷‍♂️

Does the apple tv work as a hub even if it's turned off? Or does it need to be on at all times?

I want to ask you about the version of  tv that support hub home

Hi, new subscriber here. What motion sensor do you use on your office? The one that is on your desk? And how’s your experience with it?

[stevevarga]

Does the Apple TV has to be on always to be a home hub or just needs to be plugged in to power

[esny]

Can I use a google nest doorbell camera with the HomeKit??

[tsizzle]

Which version of the Apple TV do you need to work with home kit? What if I have an older Apple TV non 4K?

Thank you for this video. I’m trying to add Arlo to home kit but I’m not sure how to do it? Do you think you can help me? Thank you.

Besides using a apple tv as a home hub do you use a different hub like scriped or HOOBs or even homey pro

[supercanardo]

So correct me if I'm wrong: I cannot use Homekit (and share it with my wife when we're at home) without a hub, right? I just want to remote a couple of plugs, it's a bit overkill to have to add an Apple TV just for that...

[josephfortier]

I did not know this, I’ve had a stupid ARLO for a few years and it will be cool to use Siri to see who’s at the front door

[jacekdk]

Hi, I do have a problem with the hub disconnecting and connecting again 20 times in one hour :( help please

[ZOEYANDFRIENDS]

is the HDMI cable needed to keep it connected to homekit remotely?

[SRX]

Can you setup homekit if you don't have an iphone? I have an android phone but have the mac mini and the apple tv. Thanks.
