Does apple home only allow one user to use home?

Hello everyone! I’m using ios 17.1 In this version I can control my smart home through the Home app and HomeKit integration, but I can’t add new users. The program says that I need to buy a device with hub support.

Is there a way to add a user?

To access the Apple HomeKit devices through the home app outside the main network, or to share the home with other users, you must have a supported apple home hub which is an AppleTV or Apple HomePod or HomePod Mini. Check apple’s website or the home app for specific models and required OS versions.
