New hardware is not needed. It’s software. It’s just taking them time as I expect they are adding new features while releasing the fix. I’m assuming it will come out as an “all-inclusive” update. Rachio uses a 3rd party dev company to program their HomeKit support. That company provided the updated/fixed software to Rachio months ago. Rachio is now just packaging it up in their software package. I feel it shouldn’t have taken this much time but it has. The reason I’m still hopeful is I know the 3rd party provided Rachio with a working version of the HomeKit software.
