Control HomeKit Devices

I've seen a lot of discussion on how to expose Indigo Devices to HomeKit. My question is it possible to go the other direction. Can Indigo control devices in HomeKit?

My Use case is HomeKit has support for a few devices that Indigo does not,. Specifically Roomie Remote Activities and Devices.

The 3rd party HomeKit Bridge plugin is only one-way in that it exposes Indigo devices to HomeKit and allows them to be controlled via HK. It does not go the other way. I don't know of a way currently to do it.

Re: Control HomeKit Devices

Only way I’ve got it to work is publish dummy devices from indigo with hkb and use HomeKit automations to keep the real HomeKit device synced with the dummy one.
Eve rather than Home app required for some states you need to see.
