Homekit Support for eero 6+
why is there no Homekit support for eero 6+? why are there no plans for it? why downgrade a user's opportunity to secure their home network more, in ways eero can not? why should I continue with eero?

I agree. I found out about Eero when it was featured Apple Store’s HomeKit Router section. At the time, Eero implied the 6+ would get HomeKi support… I committed because of that press release - but now they’ve stopped support. The Matter initiative was supposed to be about more inter-operability, but as it stands, Thread and Zigbee are useless because I don’t use Alexa. This is not going to force me to change my entire ecosystem… I will just dump Eero.

Agreed.
Not sure why the Eero Pro 6E doesn't support / allow connectivity with Apple's HomeKit when other Eero models do. While Eero and Apple have overlap in the smart home arena, there are legitimate reasons to go with best of breed and have interoperability between the two product families....after all isn't that what Thread and Matter is supposed to bring?
Please consider this as a formal request to the engineering team to reconsider the lack of support for the newer models such as the Eero Pro 6E.Thanks!
