playstation_network
The PlayStation Network integration enables you to seamlessly integrate information from your currently playing game in 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 |
|---|---|---|
media_player | Receiver | Needs its own HomeKit Bridge in accessory mode |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) |
What people report
PlayStation Network presence works via the cloud for PS5, PS4, PS3 and Vita; console type detection can be wrong.
