    Great overview, thanks!
    Two questions.
    1. When you logout from the Meross App can you still control the doors from Homekit locally?
    2. When internet is not available (no cell data either), can you still control the doors Meross App or Home?
    I believe you can still control the doors by Siri without a HomeKit hub when you add these as a shortcut. The name you give to the shortcut Siri would recognize it.
    That is how it works for my Kasa smart plugs KP125M.

      1. Yes. Home works when logged out of the Meross App
      2. No. An Internet connection is needed
      Good tip on use of shortcuts. I’ll have to try it and let you know ow how it goes!!

      I got my MSG200HK yesterday and happy to report it actually works without Internet access (WLAN) from HomeKit and the Meross App.
      I don't have a HomeKit hub either. It is just my WiFi Router and an iPhone 13 Pro.
      The only strange issue is that the Meross Widgets didn't work in this scenario, but it work from the Meross App.
      I can also confirm the Homekit works when logged out of the Meross App.

      I put my phone into airplane mode when I tested whether Internet is required. No internet = no garage control. How did you run your test? I still can’t get HomeKit to work unless I’m on my WiFi

      @@theXchange You have to have the WiFi On in your phone, but unplug temporarily your Internet Service Provider. The wifi router has to be On as well.
      This is to test if a device needs to be connected to the WLAN in order to function.
      Fortunately these would work when the internet goes down, like in a major storm, for instance.
      As long as your LAN works these controllers would work.

    Hello Kris,
    How’s the results of using Saxenda injection?
    How long have you spent using it and how many weight you lost ?
    Are you still using it, or you quit it and why.

    This is the biggest piece of garbage I've ever owned. worked great until the latest iOS update then it no longer reliably functioned. Manufacture offers no support for the homekit version

      It's been pretty solid for me so far. Regarding Homekit, I too, am a little disappointed as it doesn't seem to update in real time to inform the user when the garage has completed opening or closing, without force closing and reopening Home. Also, the Meross documentation incorrectly states that an iPad can be used as a Homekit Hub, which is no longer supported by Apple's latest version of Homekit (see details toward the end of the video).

      @@theXchangeyou need to probably extend the opening time of doors on the Meross app (ie if it’s defaulted to 15secs, but the garage door takes 23 seconds to close, it thinks that after 15 seconds when the door hasn’t closed yet that there must have been an obstruction. In this case you would extend to 25 or 30 secs).
