Homebridge plugins do not show up in wife's Home app

See original GitHub issue

Describe The Bug:

My HomeKit setup uses my iCloud account, and I have added my wife as a user. This setup has worked perfectly for years. I have several bridges, both physical and virtual. All work correctly on her iPhone. Even Home Assistant. But for some reason, Homebridge does not show up on her phone. As far as I can tell, I have enabled all permissions in the Home app. Thoughts?

To Reproduce:

Expected behavior:

Logs:

Homebridge Config:

Screenshots:

Environment:

  • Node.js Version:
  • NPM Version: 1.1.0
  • Homebridge Version: 1.1.0
  • Operating System: Synology Docker
  • Process Supervisor: Synology Docker

Thanks for the suggestion, @Soldiiier. But I actually already tried that. See my previous post. It did work temporarily. I was able to use all Homebridge devices on her phone. But shortly afterward they all went unresponsive. And then the entire bridge disappeared.

Just for the record, this is now fixed for me. It was a Homebridge issue; Not iCloud. I’m not sure which fixed it, but I did the following under Homebridge Settings:

  • Remove All Cached Accessories
  • Unpair Bridges / Cameras / TVs / External Accessories
  • Reset Homebridge Accessory
