HomeKit iOS13 Device Groups

Third party integrations
1

Greetings community,

I’ve noticed that in iOS 13, it can now group sensors together into a single device. Where currently, each sensor is added as a separate device.

For example, a motion sensor which has sensors for light, motion, temperature etc.

Although iOS13 is still in beta, does anyone know if it’s possible to do this already with HomeAssistant by adding a device group to the HomeKit Config or something? Or will we require a HomeAssistant update for the HomeKit integration first.

Anyone know / already tried?

I suppose more items are needed under the entity_config in addition to the current linked_battery_sensor attribute. Unless HomeKit does this automatically based on some common value.

Hi there. Any news on this?
I remember this worked with Domoticz. I think this is something related to the sensor id.

Thanks
