If I may, I’d like to add to your instructions because I figured out how to get access to the Aqara app while using HA.
- First install the Aqara iOS App and register the M2 Hub, this should add to HomeKit. Then add all accessories.
- After that remove the M2 from Apple Home app’s HomeKit. Don’t use the 10 second reset button to do this.
- Got to HA and install the HomeKit-Controller via http://192.168.1.1:8123/_my_redirect/config_flow_start?domain=homekit_controller It will find the M2 and its accessories and add to HA.
- Your iOS app should still have it loaded
Note: for a full setup reset, press reset button for 10 seconds, release, and see yellow light means that it’s able to pair a new HomeKit setup.
