Samsung TVhomebridge-samsungtv-control | Works | Appears in HomeKit via Homebridge and works remotely via Apple TV hubSaved copyHowever. How is my iPhone getting updates and able to control the Samsung tv, sonoff devices when I’m not on the home network without any web hook? This is because the samsung tv and sonoff are talking to your apple tv via HomeKit protocol, and then your apple tv is connected to your apple id, so your iphone, which is under the same apple id, gets to control those from outside of your home network. This also means, probably undesirably, that the samsung tv and sonoff are *not* going through your homebridge.

| Homebridge plugin | Works | Works with Homebridge on RPi3Saved copy… homebridge too. Just started this past few days and I can tell you RPi (I had RPi3) and Homebridge works great on Ring Doorbell wired, Nest Thermostat, & Samsung TV. So far these are what I currently had. I just bought a used AppleTV 4th gen to use as a hub. I asked question on YouTube and the guy (Tech With Eddie) deleted my msg when asking about HOOBS vs Homebridge.. Good thing I came in here.

Samsung Tizen TV Verifiedhomebridge-samsung-tizen | Partly works | State sync delayed; mostly stable; reauthorization needed after updatesSaved copy… just HAP. The duration is random... around 30 minutes after turning the TV off it will appear on in the home app. The LG beta 4 is workin better. The Samsung Tizen is mostly stable, but still randomly shows on when it's off. Excerpt saved from Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-22. | Local | Reddit comment · 2025-01 |
Samsung TVhomebridge-samsungtv-control | Partly works | Home sees state but cannot control powerSaved copyI have a Hue lightstrip which changes its state based of the TV status, via a Samsung homebridge plugin. However for some reason during the night, the TV comes out of standby for a while, presumably to do an update or something, which switches the TV strip on. I want to avoid this somehow. I was wondering if there was any additional tricks or dummy switches or something that I could use to not turn on the lightstrip for when it does these updates. I also have a Hue motion sensor and Hue bedside lamps if that helps? Maybe something like if lamps are off and just the TV turns on, don’t turn on … Excerpt saved from Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-22. | Local | Reddit thread · 2020-02 |
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.
