Hi Forum,

I would like to use Siri commands to start scenes. 

I have the latest Home Center App on my iphone. When I follow the directions, and go to the iphone settings, go to Siri and search > Home Center I cannot add any scenes, although I have them in my Home center app. 

 

My Home Center 2 is around 7 years old (yip, one of the beginners), also most switches and dimmers from that time. 

 

What do I do wrong or forget?

 

Thanks,

 

Chris

    Did I place this in the wrong thread maybe?

    I see the same issue.  The help guides are not correct for how the IOS is.  Is there an updated way of making SIRI talk to the homecentre app

    If you use iOS 13, this functionality has been moved to "Shortcuts" app. It is really strange Fibaro does not mention that clearly. I'm a newb to the Fibaro and since Fibaro control by Siri is only possible via shortcuts, I wonder how can I create simple scenes mirroring the switches. For example, to open the garage door. So far I could not find a simple way as Fibaro scenes always ask for "IF" condition. A bit frustrating to me.

    This is not a HomeKit problem. It is a problem with Fibaros app. Place your question in the forum thread for mobile apps. There you will probably get an answer.
