why is siri not consistentlyworking with homekit

Why is siri not consistently working with homekit? I give a command "hey siri turn on the cabinet lights" siri responds "sorry, I wasn't able to find anything like that in your home at this time". I open Homekit and the accessory is there and I can manually turn it on in Homekit.

Hi ohmsjcw,


Thanks for reaching out in Apple Support Communities. I understand that you're having trouble with Siri responding consistently to commands for HomeKit. I know how convenient it is to control accessories using Siri; I'd like to help. Since you mention the accessory is listed and working properly when you manually adjust it in the Home app, I'd suggest that you try these steps:



If you continue to have trouble, I'd suggest reaching out to Apple for additional assistance: Get Support




Best Regards.
