| HomePod music sensor plugin (pyatv) | Works | Exposes playing music as a motion sensor for automationsSaved copyHey everyone! 👋 I built a Homebridge plugin that turns your HomePod mini (or HomePod) into a music sensor for HomeKit. It shows up as a motion sensor that activates when music is playing, so you can create automations based on your listening. What it does: ∙ Detects when music is playing on your HomePod and exposes it as a motion sensor in HomeKit ∙ Smart filtering, choose to detect music only, or include podcasts/movies too ∙ Multi-HomePod support, separate sensor per device ∙ No authentication or pairing needed ∙ Configurable via the Homebridge UI Example automations: ∙ Dim lights to 30% … Excerpt saved from Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-22. | Connection not stated | Reddit thread · 2026-02 |
Each row is one report from a plugin’s GitHub issues, pull requests, discussions, wiki or docs, or from r/homebridge. Check the date and the linked thread before you buy.
In ReReHome
Once a Homebridge plugin publishes it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
