Air Conditioners
Wink Aros
- Change between cool, auto and off.
- Set temperature.
Limitations:
- Direct fan control is not yet available.
Binary Switches
Z-Wave non-dimming switches, Wink Outlink, Wink Relay

fan_ids
optional configuration field
Limitations:
- Does not report actual power usage due to limitation in HomeKit Interface.
Cameras
Arlo, Canary, Nest Cam

- Canary is added to HomeKit as security system:
- Allows user to set the operating mode (armed, disarmed, etc).
Limitations:
- Can not view video feed.
- Cameras other than Canary are not added as a security system (as I'm not sure which modes each camera supports and how they map to HomeKit states).
Door Bells
Ring

Fans
Home Decorators Collection fans
