I’m using August lock on Bluetooth. I also have it integrated to my HomePod for remote access because the August connect started to fail after a couple of years. I’ve ordered something to add a Bluetooth proxy to home assistant and hope that will be my solution for being able to integrate my lock into automations. Automations on HomeKit work, but if you delete the lock to reset it, your lock automations also disappear. So not doing that again.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
