Samsung The Frame 2020	Works Local	Partly in Home TV vanished from HomeKit until homekit.reset_accessory was called	Visible in HomeKit after homekit.reset_accessory Saved copy I haven't heard much from homekit users, but this other post seems to suggest it works: https://github.com/jaruba/ha-samsungtv-tizen/issues/89 The only thing this component does is identify itself as a Smart TV, respecting the expectations from such a device, the actual communication and exposing of devices is done by HA. So I think it's much more probable that this is a HA or Homekit issue.. Google Assistant and Alexa are documented, so this works with other assistants for sure.
