Unable to add bridge to HomeKit FW v4.34.1 (Out of Compliance)

I noticed in the advanced setting page of my bond bridge app there was a HomeKit integration. I found this forum and it appears that there is firmware support that was buggy in v4.32.x but may have gotten better in v4.34.x I tried to add the bridge to my apple home but was prompted with a failure after inputting the code: “Accessory out of Compliance” I tried to do it again but I can no longer get the accessory to show up in HomeKit, even after power cycling the Bond Bridge.

Bond Bridge BD-1000

Any ideas?

Hi @roycepope

that is interesting, thanks for your feedback.

I will send you a DM message and assist you debugging that.

Following with interest. To date, Apple has permitted uncertified AHK devices to connect with a warning shown to user and some restrictions on marketing. I want to know if there’s been any change here. Clearly this is something we could try on our side unilaterally @igoraltvidal

@merck One key piece of information I forgot to mention is I am actually on iOS 27 Developer Beta 4 when I tried to add this Bond Bridge.

I had to reset my Bond Pro Bridge HomeKit connection at a rental property, and I also now get “Accessory out of Compliance”. I have FW “v4.34.1”. I am using iOS 26.5
For the time being I have switched over to using the homebridge-bond plugin for HomeBridge for controlling the shades.

Thanks for the tip on the new iOS version. Seems to be something that bit a few others. We’ve got a fix, you’ll get it early this week in a beta v4.37.11 most likely.
