HomeKit issues after iOS 18.4 update

I recall dealing with this earlier (iOS 18?) I’ll try to locate my fix to that and share it here. Hoping it is as easy a fix as I recall…

I take it all back. I gave it a day and work up the next morning to my HomeKit automations working in full effect... HomePods, iDevice switches, etc.

Do you have more than one home access point, like iPad or additional Apple-TV? I have, and had to reselect the correct home access point after an update to make it work again.

I'm also having issues with ios 18.4 beta and Homekit . Schlage Encode Plus that use to work with iphone or ultra watch ii 11.4 keeps show "No Response" in Home App. It's a royal pain. I've tried reloading and after spending 4 plus hours i can only get my iphone 15 pro working to open the garage entry door. The other to "guest" are a not go.

Came here to confirm. Entire home, Nanoleaf bulbs, Philips strips, August locks and WiFi cams, everything is now “non responsive”. I can at least still see cams and locks using dedicated apps.

Everything “broke” after Apple TV update.

Similar situation here. Looks like a 18.4.1 update, but an identical thing happened about a month ago. Half of my Home accessories and all automations are gone. In my Home app and there was a HopePod setup window (as if I just installed it) asking me to allow Siri with Personal Requests. What’s going on at Apple??

Are you referring to “Home Hubs & Bridges”?

if so yes, I see mine is set to automatically select which may get a little weird during an update period when I have 2 Apple TVs. And 6 HomePods updating…

at the moment I see my living room Apple TV is selected which is not always on, but close to my router and has a strong connection.

I assume better to have Apple TV be access point over a HomePod but that purely a guess. I appreciate the lead.
