My Home Assistant companion app fails to connect to my HA server (Local or Cloud) ever since the most recent updates to iOS (as best as I can tell, that was the triggering issue). I try to delete and reconnect to my server, and occasionally I’m able to make a single connection after setup. Unfortunately, as soon as I exit the app and return to it, I am once again unable to connect. I have tried configurations with the more secure and less secure options as well as location tracking on and off, it makes no difference. At the same time, I have no problems logging onto my HA server via web browser, using direct local IP connection or Cloud connection.
- Note: I do run developer beta iOS; however this issue manifested itself in the final release version of iOS 26.3 (non-beta) and continues with iOS betas of 26.4.
If it has any impact, my network is run on an Ubiquity UDM Pro, and I recall that there was a recent update to Unifi OS (automatic updates enabled)
