| Philips Hue | Works Local | Partly in Home Group lights sometimes missing in Home after restart; reload creates duplicates | Fixed by the v2 integration rewriteSaved copyThe problem The Philips Hue Groups which seems to be a special type of entities (integration type Light), do not always show up as devices in HomeKit. It seems some race condition, where if Hue Integration takes a bit longer to start, HomeKit would just ignore those entities. If later I call `homekit.reload` service, the Hue Group entities will show up as devices in HomeKit but they will be new devices, so I have to move them to each room and update names again and again. This happens nearly every time I restart HASS for any reason. ### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue? … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #60002 · 2021-11 |

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.
