One of the possibilities offered by mobile devices such as iPhone or iPad is the possibility of make our home a connected home. An idea that a few years ago, in the beginnings of home automation, was unthinkable, but that is now increasingly at hand thanks to systems such as Apple's HomeKit and increasingly cheaper products.
Everyone wants take advantage of the virtues of home automation, there is demand ... Today we want to talk about Xiaomi, the Chinese brand that does everything, and does make smart home devices too. Their smart bulbs, the Yeelight, are one of the cheapest options Similar to higher priced bulbs, yes, they were not compatible with Apple's HomeKit so it was necessary to use the company's app. But the wait is over ... Smart bulbs Yeelight are already compatible with Apple's HomeKit ...
Well yes, the wait is over. And they are many who demanded the support of HomeKit in the Yeelight. Now it is possible by updating the bulbs to their latest version. Just do it with the Yeelight app We will jump the notice to add them to the Home app. It is important that let's add through the app of the brand because at the moment in the packaging the bulbs do not include the QR code from HomeKit and this would be the only way to add them to Apple's home automation system. Yeelight products that add support for Apple's HomeKit are as follows:
- Yeelight Smart LED Bulb v2 (Colour)
- Yeelight Smart LED Bulb (White scale)
- Strip of lights Yeelight Aurora Lightstrip Plus
Yeelight aims to bring the best smart lighting experience to our global users. In the last eight months, our engineers have worked very hard to bring HomeKit compatibility to three of our legacy products.
Just update the firmware to the latest version and follow our instructions to add your Yeelight devices to HomeKit. Enjoy the convenience of HomeKit with Siri on your iPhone and iPad now!
Of course, as you can see, the first version of the Yeelight Smart LED Bulb is not included on the bulbs that add this bracket for HomeKit. A shame since they were very popular bulbs due to their low price, and not many have bought the next version to update them. We will see if they manage to add more products to the HomeKit catalog since this compatibility is great news in every way.
