Switch to Time-based Cover
duhow/hass-cover-time-based · v0.4.0
Add a cover (time-based) to Home Assistant using switch or lights.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
cover | Blind, garage door, window or door |
What people report
Time-based covers work with relay-style inputs; single-button and script-driven controllers gained support.
