All data for 32 devices lost with update

New update lost all my 32 devices data and now I’m *ucking furious.

Hi, Please reach out to me via the in-app support and I can help you out.

Secure your Apple Home Codes

Absolutely must have app for anyone with Apple Home accessories. HomePass 2 builds upon an already amazing app with some great new features. Not to mention it’s extremely affordable. If it saves you having to repurchase just a single accessory, you will have made back your investment. Not to mention all the other time saving features it has.

Don’t go another day without securing your Apple Home codes.

Longtime User, Must-Have App

I’ve been using HomePass for years, and with 100+ smart home devices it has been a key element to keeping it all running. I can trust all my pairing codes are safe, and the new design is great!

Indispensable

If you have Matter and/or HomeKit devices and don’t want to make yourself crazy if, when, something goes wrong, HomePass is excellent for cataloging your device codes. Include handy notes so that you remember how you set up a device before, etc. HomePass is an excellent app and just one of many good apps by this developer.

Great app

Very handy having my Homekit codes backed up in case I need to remove and re-add a device. The new version looks good, too!

Now Subscription

Purchased the original app! latest update had bad code (told by dev) update was supposed to fix! unfortunately it lost all my 98 device codes and unable to restore them. I am very disappointed yet another developer has gone down the greed subscription model and broke what was an app that while I never used or needed! failed me on an botched update that now cannot even use. deleted and will not purchase anything from this developer. I have his other apps!

Hi, have you reached out to me via the in-app support? You have not lost any codes as the app never deletes the old data. It simply copies it to the new database. A migration can be run multiple times as needed. Saved for later devices will be able to managed in an upcoming update.

Great when you need it

One of those apps you should get and set up… and ignore until you need it. When you do need it you’ll definitely be thanking past you!

The app itself is straightforward and easy to use, and has been well maintained in the time I’ve had it. Exactly what you want in an app like this.

Beware All Devices Don’t Transfer to New iPhones

After transferring to a new iPhone 16 Pro Max I lost all my devices recorded in HomePass. After spending hours imputing all my HomeKit devices, it’s not worth the hassle of re-imputing the date.

Response from developer

Hi, You simply needed to reinstall the app for iCloud to re-sync. This is a bug that is fixed in the next major update.

Does what it says on the tin

And does it wonderfully. It’s a fantastic little utility to store HomeKit codes, and it’s a life saver when you need it. Saves a lot of time and frustration!

Missing basic functionality

Unable to delete old homes, or move accessories out of old homes into new. Very inflexible.

Response from developer

Hi, HomePass keeps data seperate from HomeKit. You can move accessories out of old homes by editing each device to move them to the new one. Old homes are automatically deleted when no devices are saved in them.
