This is absolutely why I refuse to purchase any smart home products that aren't fully functional within the Apple Home app. If something cannot work offline and without a central service then it doesn't belong in my home.
I think that's the primary value proposition for Apple HomeKit and I'm really quite sad that more companies, and Apple themselves, don't put more effort into supporting it.
- voisin 6y agoI am an admitted Apple fanboy, but even I recognize that Apple is an offender in this field. We have tons of old Apple iPhones and iPads that had functionality that no longer works - app developers stopped supporting the only iOS that can be loaded on the device. It is only a matter of time before this happens to HomeKit too.
