| HomeKit Controller | Works Local | Works in Home Paired locally, blocked from internet, works fine | Works locally via HomeKit integration with internet access blocked for 21 monthsSaved copyI got ecobee lite 3 thermostat almost 21 month ago and happy to report it works locally just fine. I paired it with HA via HomeKit integration and barred it from accessing Internet. My other thermostat is Google Nest, which will be deprecated within a month and will become a dumb knob. I’ll probably replace it with another ecobee too Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2025-09 |
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.
