Smart Rain Gauge - Automation in Apple Home

ddandmui

Any possibility of future firmware upgrade which support automation in Apple Home of rain detection feature by using Smart Rain Gauge?  I believe Apple Home users are very disappointed about this Smart Rain Gauge is not smart enough.

    Hi,

    The Rain and Wind Gauge are not yet supported by Apple HomeKit and the Home app. They are therefore shown in the Home app as "Not supported".

    The triggers used for automation depend on Apple's validations. Currently, the Weather Station in HomeKit can only use Air Quality and CO2 as a trigger. Also, Apple does not yet support precipitation and wind measurements.
    Eventually, we would like Apple to allow us to also use sound volume, wind, and precipitation for scenarios.

    For more information about what you can do with a Station paired with Apple Homekit, please click here.

    Regards.
