##Welcome
Hi, welcome to r/Homekit! Please remember to read the rules.
##Rules
>#####1. Keep it civil and safe for work.
>
>Be nice and civil. As Reddiquette says, "Remember the human," and "Don't be rude at all." Harassment could get you banned from r/HomeKit the first time depending on the severity, (Don't try to test the mods) or the second time, almost always no matter what. This means you've chosen to break the rules. Rudeness will get you banned (7 days on average) when repeated, and incivility will also get you banned when repeated.

#

>#####2. Posts must be related to HomeKit.
>
>Only posts related to HomeKit are permitted. HomeBridge questions should go in r/HomeBridge, questions that are not related to HomeKit but are about a company's product that supports HomeKit should still go in that company's subreddit. If that company does not have a subreddit you can post in a subreddit such as r/HomeAutomation, r/SmartHome, etc. A list of company subreddit's can be found in the sidebar.

#

>#####3. No Amazon affiliate and/or referral links.
>
> No Amazon affiliate links and also no referral links that 'refer' you to Amazon affiliate links. An example of an Amazon affiliate link is amzn.to. These are automatically removed and using one could result in a permaban based on your previous post and comment history.

#

>#####4. 'What to buy' and 'Should I buy....' questions go in the sticked megathread.
>
> **'What to buy'** and **'Should I buy...'** questions go in the the sticked megathread dedicated to these types of questions in order to keep the feed from being spammed with them.

Please remember to read the rules and add a flair! Here's a quick summary of them.

* No Amazon affiliate links.

* Your post must be about HomeKit.

Flaring your post: Please flair your post. This makes it easier for the mods as they don't have to flair it for you. To flair: Post your post then click the flair button that is down with the 'Comments' and 'Share' buttons.  ^(**How-to is only for if your post is about showing people how to do something, not for asking how to do something.**)
