Still no ETA?  "Early 2019" officially ended at mid-2019....

This feels a lot like the Ring promises of HomeKit support. Three years later and it's still not released. I was really excited after the CES announcement and ready to swap all of my smart devices out, but we're definitely past "early 2019" now and I won't be buying any more devices until it is actually released.

I bought multiple HS105s plus a KP400 after the HomeKit announcement. More fool me, I guess. Not going near another TP Link device until HK support is added.

No ETA is available yet.  We know it is still being worked on but we have no other details available.

Looking for an update on this. Getting ready to do a large upgrade to a lot of things and HomeKit support is a requirement. I have a few TP-Link switches and bulbs because I got a good deal and future HomeKit support was promised. I have been happy with them for the most part, but HomeKit integration is so simple, which means my wife likes it. If there is not HomeKit support on the horizon I will skip TP-Link and switch to something that has it out of the box.

Apparently there has been a change. I'm seeing reports that plans for HomeKit support have been dropped entirely.

 

That is, as they say, a disappointment.
