Can more than one user create scenes in Homekit

My husband wants to create his own scene for the Homekit. I have set it up with him as a user, and it appears to not allow him to create any scenes of his own. How can he create his own scenes? Does he have to create his own home and load the accessories on his own device?


Thanks,

Cheryll
