Philips Hue Update and iOS Update now not home integration

[Brian Williams]

Hello Cecil,

I have iOS 14.7.1 on my iPhone and iPadOS 14.7.1 on my iPad. I use HomeKit/XTension actively, but had not noticed any problem…until I came looking for one (due to your report).

I found that while I could control various lights with the iOS Home app, the display did not reflect the true state of the light(s), and when XT turned on a light via non-Home action, again, the iOS app didn’t synchronize. 

I pulled up the XT interface for Home Kit and cycled it (Disable / Enabled) and all started to work as it should (i.e. full synchronization).

I have no Philips Hue products in my home.

I hope that this is useful information.

Good luck in resolving your issue.

Regards,  Brian
