Added your Home Assistant devices to Apple Home and they all landed in the same room? HomeKit doesn't know which room a bridged accessory belongs to, and Apple Home makes you move them one by one. RoomSync reads your Home Assistant areas and puts every Apple Home accessory in the room with the same name. One direction, no surprises: Home Assistant is the source of truth and the app never changes anything in HA. • Preview before applying: which rooms get created, renamed, and which accessories move. • Automatic backup before every change, with one-tap restore. • Recognizes HomeKit Bridge accessories by identity, not by name. Everything else is paired once, by hand. • Home screen with the state of every room: in sync, to move, to create. • Bulk move: select several accessories, from HA or not, and send them to a room together. • Home Assistant and Apple Home inventories as tiles, with icons per accessory type. • Sign in to your own Home Assistant from the app; the token is stored encrypted on the iPhone and never leaves it. • No accounts, no tracking: the app only talks to your Home Assistant and, if you write to the developer or tell them how you found the app, to them. Free: preview, room mapping, backups, diagnostics and organizing 5 complete rooms, bulk move included; the rooms you organize stay free. A single one-time purchase unlocks all rooms, bulk move to any room and full room cleanup. No required subscription; monthly support is optional: it adds alternate app icons and, with Support+, the app's color, but unlocks no features. Requires Home Assistant with the HomeKit Bridge integration (or accessories already paired in Apple Home) and an iPhone on the same network.
