Connecting your Govee smart devices to Apple HomeKit allows you to control them seamlessly using the Apple Home app or voice commands via Siri. Whether it’s smart lights, plugs, or other Govee products, HomeKit integration offers easy access to automation, customization, and remote control.
Once connected, you can adjust settings, set schedules, and group devices for a smarter home experience. Enjoy a more convenient way to manage your Govee devices alongside other HomeKit-enabled accessories, all with the power of Apple’s ecosystem.
Step 1: Set Up Your Govee Device
Ensure that your Govee device (like Govee smart lights) is properly set up using the Govee Home app. Make sure it’s connected to your Wi-Fi and working correctly.
Step 2: Open the Govee Home App
Open the Govee Home app on your iPhone or iPad. If you don’t have it, download it from the App Store.
Step 3: Find the HomeKit Setup Code
In the Govee Home app, select the device you want to add to HomeKit (e.g., smart lights). Then, navigate to Device Settings or More Settings. Look for the option that says “Connect to HomeKit” or “HomeKit Setup”.
Step 4: Scan the HomeKit Code
Once you select Connect to HomeKit, a HomeKit setup code (QR code) will appear in the app. Open the Apple Home app on your iPhone or iPad, and tap “Add Accessory”. Scan the HomeKit setup code shown in the Govee Home app using your iPhone’s camera.
Step 5: Complete the Setup
After scanning, the Govee device should appear in the Apple Home app. You can then assign the device to a room and customize its settings as desired.
Step 6: Control with Siri
Once connected, you can control the device using the Apple Home app or by using Siri. For example, you can say, “Hey Siri, turn on the lights” or control brightness and colors.
That’s it! Your Govee device is now connected to HomeKit, and you can control it using the Home app or Siri.
