Only three climate mode in homekit?

homekit ac get data from home-assistant. it worked well, but some question i found

  1. There are 6 modes in HA including “hvac_modes: auto, cool, dry, fan_only, heat, off”, however homekit only shows 4 modes including “off, auto, heat, cool”. Is there any possible to get the other two states? I try to look up the source code, and find out some interested things which i could not fully understand.

    (exclude “dry, fan_only” modes when climate support “cool” mode ???)

  2. homekit can not control fan swing and level.

I think homekit cannot do dry mode natively
