HomeKit with AI in iOS 27

Apple released iOS 27 on September 14th and, as it does every year, I'm going through what's changed in the Home app and HomeKit. This year the buzzword is artificial intelligence: HomeKit Secure Video cameras in 4K, written summaries of what's happened, facial recognition cross-referenced with Photos, notifications grouped with context, and natural-language search through recordings. There's also the new Energy tab, Thread 1.4, and faster Matter pairing. And the usual "but": iPhone 15 Pro or later, an updated accessory hub, and iCloud+. I'll tell you what all this actually brings to those of us who already have Home Assistant at home.

Webhooks and workflows in Controller for HomeKit

Kicking off Season 4. I'm picking back up the automation for the sensor that kept running out of batteries that I told you about the other day, but this time from Controller for HomeKit instead of the Home app. I explain how to read the internal parameters of devices—those raw values HomeKit doesn't show you—and what workflows are, formerly called flows: automations you build as a sequence of steps that do things impossible with Shortcuts, like waits with cancellation, counters ("window open for 16 minutes"), reading lux or battery levels, or firing off a webhook to Home Assistant. And I tell you about my favorite workflow: the "off to school" song. Show notes: The episode about the kids' bedroom sensor: https://sahuquillo.org/sensor-aqara-p2-hijos-habitacion/ The low battery alert automation: https://sahuquillo.org/notificacion-de-bateria-baja-en-un-dispositivo/ Advanced notifications with Controller for HomeKit: https://sahuquillo.org/minimizando-las-notificaciones/ Blog: https://sahuquillo.org Telegram group, X (@csahuqui), and Mastodon (@csahuquillo@mas.to).

How to tell if your kid is sneaking into your room without having a camera

I bought the Aqara P2 presence and light sensor with Matter, and I've got it running simultaneously on HomeKit and Home Assistant thanks to Multi-Admin. I'll walk you through the automations I've set up (absent guardian, surveillance mode to catch the kids in the act, low battery alerts, and Siri control), plus a few more that could be pulled off.

Smart locks with kids

Having a smart lock at home is great—until one of your kids accidentally opens it from the Home app while you're away, and the door's left wide open. In this episode I walk you through what options you have to prevent this, comparing Apple's Home app, Home Assistant, and Tedee's native app... even attempting a few "spells" with Controller for HomeKit and Shortcuts... but remember, wherever app permissions fall short, you can always fall back on the parental smack upside the head.

Tedee lock compatible with Matter

Tedee's compatibility with Matter had been promised since 2023 but has finally landed. I tell you how to update a Tedee Go 1, how to get the Matter code if your lock does not bring it in printed and what changes when you integrate it into HomeKit. The good news is, he makes a lot. The bad news is that the shortcomings do not depend on Tedee but on Apple.

To flash or not to flash Shellys in 2026, that is the question

With Matter arriving on the Shelly Gen4, you can now hook them up to the Home app or Home Assistant without flashing anything. But does that mean installing an alternative firmware like HAA no longer makes sense? It depends on what kind of user you are. If all you want is to turn things on and off, Matter's got you covered (and you don't void the warranty). If you want to squeeze every last pin out of the device and have local logic with zero latency, you'll probably still want to flash it. Let me walk you through when it's worth the hassle and when it isn't.

Full restore? Or start from scratch?

I restored my iPhone from scratch because it was overheating, and a clean restore fixed the heat issue and now the battery lasts longer too... I did the same with the Apple Watch, with that same feeling of smoothness and better battery life. This has made me rethink my automations: between HomeKit and Home Assistant, maybe it's time to start from zero, tidy up names, automations, and logs… Is a total clean-up worth it if "it already works"?

What is comfort in home automation?

What does 'comfort' at home mean to you? For Emilcar, comfort is having the lights on when they should be on. For me, comfort comes from having the house always at the right temperature... even if there are lights you have to turn on with your own hands.

Netatmo weather station vs. Carrot Weather vs. Apple Weather

Does it even make sense to buy a weather station these days, with weather apps being as good as they are? I've been testing Netatmo's and comparing it against Carrot Weather and Apple's Weather app… and heads up, because even though it fudges the outdoor temperature a bit, it nails the rain forecast every time. Integrations, accessories, and my honest take after several months using it at home.

Temporary HomeKit glitch with Scene-based Automations

During last week, there was a HomeKit issue affecting automations that included scenes. Although the Scenes ran fine manually, testing them inside an automation would throw an error with no further explanation. In the end, the glitch fixed itself without me having to do anything, in the purest Apple fashion.

XPlora: Kids' watches that can be integrated into Home Assistant

Devices or environments in automations?

In my Home Automation Consultancy sessions I see all sorts: from people who want to start automating their home from scratch to those looking for specific solutions, like motorized blinds or adjustments for people with visual impairments. But today I want to talk to you about a common mistake: building automations by adding all the devices directly instead of creating scenes or environments. Even though it doesn't seem like a big deal, scenes are more efficient, faster, and easier to manage. Plus, they give things a more "user-friendly" touch by allowing simple voice commands, like the famous "Hey Lola, make me fall in love."

Minimizing notifications

Notifications on our devices have gotten completely out of hand. We get a thousand interruptions a day from them, and many don't even add anything useful, so we end up ignoring them. In my case, I've made the effort to cut back on notifications in general, and on home-automation sensor and automation notifications in particular... and I feel a lot better for it. Let me tell you which ones I've gotten rid of.

Not your typical "Let me show you my smart home" video

At first it's easy to get carried away buying gadgets thinking you'll make use of them later or find some purpose for them. I think it's actually the other way around: we should buy devices that solve an actual need we have. If we go looking for ideas based on other people's needs, on YouTube channels or home-automation podcasts, we'll end up with a bunch of cool ideas that we'll stop using soon enough.

My kids don't know when they ring the bell.

When I leave them alone at home, my children are usually with the helmets, consuming some content, listening to music, or watching a movie on TV with popcorn and all the doors closed (teenagers things), so they don't know if they ring the bell. With this simple automation we will get the lights to blink, receive a notification on TV or on the HomePods of the rooms if they touch the door.

Virtual switches in Controller for HomeKit

Controller for HomeKit isn't a cheap app, but with every new version I feel like it deserves its price tag even more. This time around they're introducing the ability to directly integrate your HomeKit-compatible TV (which Apple keeps 'hostage' in its Home app, just like HomePods) and, way cooler: the option to create virtual switches from a physical one so you can, for example, bypass your smart lock's security checks and have the door open automatically when you approach!

Advanced notifications without Controller for HomeKit

Apple's native Home app is too limited for some things. For example, we can't create a notification to alert us when we've left a light on, when the temperature drops below 19 degrees, or when a door has been open for more than 5 minutes. For that there are alternatives like Controller for HomeKit, but it's quite pricey. Today we're talking about the Pushover service, a much cheaper and more versatile alternative to Controller.

Periodic review of automations and bugs

During this time of year, when we should have a bit more free time and have just added all those devices we bought during Black Friday, it's a good moment to do a full review of the system and check whether the automations, devices, and settings are clean of errors and up to date.

My Matter network on HomeKit (I)

Is it worth updating Matter-compatible devices if we're going to manage them from HomeKit or the Home app? I don't think so, I haven't noticed any difference in performance or stability. Once devices are updated to Matter, they become visible from other apps or services like Home Assistant, but if you're only going to manage them from the Home app, it's probably not worth jumping the gun.

Automations that nearly cost me my marriage

The phrase I've heard most from my wife over the years is "the house is not a toy." And you can't imagine the arguments I've had at home over the years because of some automation that didn't work the way it was supposed to, or some harebrained idea gone wrong. You're reading these lines for the same reason I write them: we love technology. But at home we're not always surrounded by people with the same "appetite" for technology as us, and in some cases, resistance to change can be pretty significant. So today I want to tell you about a few automations that nearly cost me my marriage. And yes, sometimes the device was the one that failed (rarely), but other times the problem was a conceptual mistake or a poorly configured automation.
