Gardena Sileno Smart 500	Partly works	Owner volunteered to test while Gardena support was being introduced in preview Saved copy Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe: As a user, I would like to use a Gardena series mower with the plug-in. Describe the solution you'd like: Begin introducing support for the Gardena mowers in a preview form. Describe alternatives you've considered: Leaving the mower unsupported. Gone back and forth on this a few times, with everything in place it shouldn’t be much work to add it. Additional context: I will need help to do this as I won’t have the hardware required for Husqvarna to authorize access to the APIs. It seems you must have a Gardena product registered. … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.	Issue #245 · 2022-12

In ReReHome

Whatever this plugin publishes reaches Apple Home as a normal HomeKit accessory behind your Homebridge bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.

Bridges get their own settings page listing the accessories behind them.
