Certain Samsung televisions current support Apple TV and Apple music. They will not support Apple Homekit until a compatible version is released by Apple.

Yes I have airplay and apple apps, but I don't have access to the homekit integration. are different things. so it's stupid because samsung wants to force you to use its smartthings platform ...

Hi, 

 

I agree with the frustration of @user0rEulLng1x . In the list of compatible devices, is there a Homekit QR code that we can scan?

 

Thanks!

It looks that LG has HomeKit support because there are several YouTube videos showing how to do it. The ball is in your court Samsung, please make HomeKit available.

Blaming Apple is a new low. I bought a Samsung QLED 7, no HomeKit compatibility even if you broadcasted you would support it. I'm really frustrated... This is 2020, aren't there any highter moral grounds you could think of reaching than feodal warmongering?
