Overview

Starting with Homemanager 4 you can create, control and manage Homebridge Child Bridges inside the app.

‍

Child Bridges allow you to run plugins as separate bridges. In case a plugin crashes, only this child bridge will stop working in HomeKit.

You can restart all your bridges easily directly on the dashboard. If you update a plugin, only affected child bridges will be restarted afterwards.

‍

System Requirements

In order to manage Child Bridges with Homemanager, you need a Homebridge system withΒ Homebridge UI V4.38.0 or newer, running on hb-service mode.
