After being announced back at CES in January, Brilliant has officially launched HomeKit support in public beta for its “Control” smart home hub. This means users can now control connected lights and fans through the Home app and with Siri on their Apple devices.
With HomeKit support, fans and lights wired directly to Brilliant Control directly will now be controllable via HomeKit:
Brilliant also points out one limitation to its new support of HomeKit, which it says is a limitation on Apple’s side:
For those unfamiliar, Brilliant Control is designed to replace your existing switches and offer a central place platform on which you can control all of your smart home accessories. While the HomeKit tie-in isn’t necessarily as deep as some might like, today’s update at least makes it possible to control the lights and fans controlled by that switch.
You can find out more about Brilliant Control’s support for HomeKit here and learn more about how to set up the public beta of HomeKit with your Brilliant Control in this support document. The Brilliant Control is available in four different configurations, depending on the size of the light switch you are replacing. Prices start at $299 and range up to $449.
