factory reset the device
add the device in the Home App
removing the device in the Home App

如果遇到支持 HomeKit 的 Wi-Fi 设备（例如 Aqara 的妙控开关S1E、人在FP2）或者其他平台支持 HomeKit 的网关（例如涂鸦的 ZigBee 网关），比较通用的做法就是先将设备接入 HA 里的 HomeKit 控制器，再通过 HA 里的 HomeKit 桥接器接到 HomeKit，即 HomeKit 反向接入。

这种方法适用于几乎所有支持 HomeKit 的设备，但是由于许多设备接入 HomeKit 都有阉割，所以也无法在 HA 里使用这些阉割的功能，比如功率。

(1) 确保设备未连接到任何 HomeKit 家庭
首先，需要确保你的设备未连接到 HomeKit，如果有，请在家庭 App 中删除这个设备，如果之后还是无法添加，请重置设备。

(2) 添加 HomeKit 控制器

(3) 通过桥接器将设备添加到 HomeKit 家庭

If a corresponding device is connected in Apple Home and you want it in Home Assistant, you just need to remove it from Apple Home, but not reset it. So it remains connected to WiFi and can be found by Home Assistant.
These devices were now displayed in HA without searching after I removed them from AH.

With a HomeKit Bridge you can make the device available for Apple Home again, so that it can be switched on and off via the Apple app.

HomeKit devices cannot be paired to more than one controller (hence the “no unpaired devices could be found” error). So you have to remove them from the Home app on iOS, possibly reset them (device-dependent), then add them to HA.
