I set up two Bots to push buttons for my Somfy window shade. The Bots are connected to a SwitchBot Hub 2, which works perfectly with Apple HomeKit. Now I just say, “Siri, shade up”, or “Siri, shade down” to move the shade. With HomeKit, the shade now is programmed to go up at sunset.
This configuration saved me hundreds of dollars, because I didn’t have to purchase a Somfy server, which would not work with HomeKit anyway.
Works 100%. The Somfy remote with the Bots is away in a cabinet, out of sight. We have a spare remote, and keep it handy, but haven’t needed to use it since finding this SwitchBot solution.
