I have a G410 doorbell and G5 Pro camera, each of which are connected to Homekit. Generally I’m happy, but each of them show up as Security Systems in Apple Home, which seems redundant. More of a problem though, is when a notification pops up that somebody has rung the doorbell from Apple Home, clicking on the notification takes me to the Security System control instead of the streaming camera. I’d much rather go to the camera to see who is at the door instead of arming/disarming the security.
My questions:
- Is there a way to merge the two security systems in apple home so there is only one house level control instead of two?
- Is there a way to fix the notification problem so the Apple Home doorbell notification takes me to the camera feed instead fo security system?
- Is there a way to just add the doorbell to Apple Home and not include the security system at all?
Overall I’m quite pleased with the Aqara products and Apple Home integration, but this is a bit of a pain point for using the doorbell.
