First--thanks so much for doing this. It's phenomenal.
Question about adding additional devices in the iOS Homekit app. I configured the Homekit server in Indigo and added a device. I then successfully added them to the Homekit app. I went back to Indigo and added another device. How do I get that 2nd device to show up in the Homekit app? The Getting Started Guide says new devices will just appear but I'm not seeing it.
Thanks–

Turning the Homekit Bridge off then on made them appear--not sure if that's what's supposed to happen

Re: adding additional device after initial setup
It's unclear why that is needed for about 50% of the new installs but it is. It's noted in the quick start guide too. I've never been able to find exactly what causes that requirement but it's only after the first install, from that point on its fine.

Thanks. It also seems like response to voice commands via HomePod is inconsistent. Is that a known issue?

Not for me, I have several of them and they are actually quite good IMO.
