Hi everyone, I have a question about the HomeKit integration in Home Assistant.
I’m trying to get my KNX blinds to show up correctly as blinds/shutters in the Apple Home App, but they keep appearing under the Climate category.
🔹 Goal: The blinds should be categorized as blinds/shutters in the Home app.
🔹 Setup:
Home Assistant version: 2025.1.4
HomeKit integration: Official HomeKit Bridge from Home Assistant
Blinds are connected via KNX
🔹 Already tried:
Changed device_class in cover: to shutter and window → no change
Restarted Home Assistant
🔹 Question:
How can I get Home Assistant to correctly categorize the blinds as blinds/shutters in HomeKit? Are there any known workarounds or specific configurations that I might be missing?
YAML:
cover:
- name: "EG Jalousien Büro Fenster Osten"
move_long_address: "1/3/18"
stop_address: "1/3/19"
position_address: "1/3/24"
position_state_address: "1/3/25"
device_class: "shutter"
Here is a screenshot for reference: (attach screenshot)
Thanks for your help! 😊
