Not quite what I was hoping for

I realized (after purchasing) that HomeKit codes have to added manually. This somewhat defeats my purpose for getting the app. I could’ve used a spread sheet to accomplish similar results. I can see the developer has put a lot of time into this, as it’s a polished app, but might I suggest a few additions:
Sorting - right now, it seems to be by alphabetical only.
Grouping - everything is on one page. I have a ton of HomeKit devices and having a flat layout does present a challenge
Better scanning - As another review mentioned, I have to verify each HomeKit code, as the app scanner is not 100% accurate

Hi, there is no way for the app to retrieve codes via HomeKit itself. This is due to the security model of HomeKit where HomeKit does not need to store or keep the pairing codes around once paired. The app description does clarify this at the bottom.

I’ll take note of your feature suggestions, some of which I already have planned for an future update.

Now on macOS! Does what it says it does, and does it well!

As I wrote in my iOS review, before buying this app, reread the description.

No app is magic, and all are limited by what Apple will allow a developer to do…

I had had many false starts at making notes of my HomeKit codes with free tools.

They've always suffered as being too cumbersome.

Once I picked up this app, I finished the record keeping project in one session.

The addition of custom fields is excellent!

I would buy this app again.

Appears useless to me

>We've detected a HomeKit bridge, some accessories you expect to see, may be hidden as bridged accessories do not have unique setup codes.

Nothing else I seem to be able to do with this app other than manually add my Phillips Hue Bridge.

Bridged devices do not have setup codes to store therefore HomePass hides them and leaves just the bridge to be stored with its code.
