HomeKit enables your app to coordinate and control home automation accessories from multiple vendors to present a coherent, user-focused interface.
Using HomeKit, your app can:
Communicate with configured accessories and services in order to perform actions like turning on the lights in the living room.
- Secure Pairing
- Control individual devices
HomeKit has a defined structure to enable developer communications with the compatible devices.
The root of HomeKit is Homes. Each home can have one or more rooms, and each room can have one or more accessories. An accessory could be anything just like a fan or lights.
To make this demo to be working, you need to Setup Homekit simulator.
