Yeah but they don’t function as GATT proxy for generic non-Shelly BLE devices, so you can’t use the them to control an Switchbot Bot for example. But they are great for advertisements like sensor data.

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.
