Hello tedee users,

We've been working hard on HomeKit integration. In the upcoming weeks we will release few beta versions for mobile and devices and we'll ask you for help. Please note that the "beta" versions may be unstable. By joining the testing program, you acknowledge that application may not match quality standards as a regular version does.

How to join for Android Beta

If you want to join the beta program please sign up for using this link or directly from Google Play app link.

You can leave the testing program any time using the same link and install the public version from store.

How to join for iOS Beta

You can join iOS beta using this public link.

In order to install the app, you will need to download and open TestFlight. Please follow the steps from the manual: https://testflight.apple.com/.

To leave testing program, you can delete yourself as a tester in the app’s Information page in TestFlight by tapping Stop Testing and install the public version from store.

Version 1.115.01 beta (iOS), 1.115.1.1 beta (Android)

This version introduce new way of discovering and connecting to tedee devices via Bluetooth that will be released later with a HomeKit firmware update. During this test we want to make sure that backward combability is working and users doesn't have issues with connecting to exiting devices via Bluetooth.

What to test:

• Check if adding device process is working
• Check if you can update device firmware from mobile
• Check if you can unlock/lock the lock from phone/widget via Bluetooth
• Check if Apple Watch is working

We already have tested this and everything worked fine. Please share your feedback under this post.

Hi Lars,

Unfortunately Apple will not allow us to push anything to public beta (TestFlight) which contains logic for HomeKit without certification :( This is why we changed a little the testing process and there is no more public tests for existing locks. 

After certification we still have plan to send the update first to preview testers.

Dear Lars,

I think we are more open and transparent than any other IoT company. We updated you with:

1. Roadmap of when we expect to deliver the main features
2. Exact steps and progress for main features like Homekit by updating forum post or social media
3. We collect feedback and showing you the preview of feature (videos on forum and social media)
4. We're informing you of the delays
5. You can contact directly with external Testers of HomeKit via Twitter and we do not control this

So I think we are giving you a lot of information. We cannot give you exact date because in most cases:

1. It depends of external parties (like Apple response time)
2. We do not want to be fixed, we want to be well prepared for the release

As you can see above the public release is in progress and you will see it soon (few weeks), it will be connected with other announcements and this is why it is delayed. I can promise you that HomeKit will be delivered to all of you in this quarter. Thank you for your patience.

Hi Lars, thank you for your understanding and we appreciate your engagement. We are currently working on informing all users about HomeKit, unfortunately this will also take some time. The upcoming update will close the HomeKit feature for new devices. We are currently focusing on implementing HomeKit for existing devices and we have the firmware ready but we need to work out the SMALL details with Apple. Unfortunately, Apple during the holiday period is not very responsive so the whole process is prolonged.

Hi David,

I cannot find your request to join the Beta program, are you sure you filled the form? There is no request with csdb@mac.com email. All testers received confirmation email this Monday and the group is closed now, sorry. But do not wary, soon we will release preview version for our existing locks.
