How to connect OSRAM LIGHTIFY Bulb to Apple HomeKit

Workaround required

The verdict

OSRAM LIGHTIFY Bulb does not have native support for Apple HomeKit, but you can still integrate it using a bridge or workaround.

How to fix it

OSRAM LIGHTIFY bulbs use Zigbee and work with Alexa, Google, and SmartThings. For HomeKit, use HomeBridge with a Zigbee controller like Aqara Hub M2 or ConBee II and the homebridge-z2m plugin.

Note: This device works best when paired with a compatible hub or bridge.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1
