niu scooter integration for Home assistant.
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 |
|---|---|---|
camera | Camera | Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
sensor | Sensor (temperature, humidity, air quality…) |
What people report
NIU scooters work via the NIU cloud; alerts such as trunk open are not yet exposed and some sensors randomly read 0.

| NIU NQiX 150 | Partly works Cloud | No trunk-open or movement alerts yet; maintainer adding more entitiesSaved copy… thanks a lot for the integration, it is great. But I was looking for something similar, either the trunk status or the “multifunction” button that my NQIX 150 has in the right handle. I was trying to get the json/xml from the API to check if it was being reported. Could you please check? My goal is being able to tell my home assistant that I want to open my garage door so I can fire the events. Again, thanks a lot! Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-23. | Issue #84 · 2026-09 |
