Hi,
I have a network with 20+ HomeKit devices and I am very familiar with the technical details here.
I have three different brands of SmartPlugs that I cannot get to setup and connect to my Eero network. (WeMo, Meross, TP Link). All are failing to join the network.
I spoke with Eero, and they confirmed that all of the devices are attempting to join but sending a bad password.
It appears that Apple is passing off a bad password to these devices during the HomeKit setup process, and they never are able to join the Network.
I am currently running iOS 16.1.1. I'm about to update to a beta to see if there is any difference there.
The Wifi password do not contain any special characters.
Does anyone have anymore troubleshooting insight here?

I have an interesting scenario that I can't seem to figure out with the existing Intent/Widget APIs.
Scenario:
Version 1.0:
I have two widget types that shared a custom intent (because they both only needed the same configuration value (i.e., a theme)). These are different kinds of widgets
Widget A, Custom Intent 1
Widget B, Custom Intent 1
Version 2.0
After getting the widgets into the hands of my users, it has become obvious that I need to provide some specific options to each widget kind moving forward. This means I would like to create two unique Custom Intents to house the specifics of the each customization option I would like to provide.
I would like the end scenario to look like:
Widget A, Custom Intent 2
Widget B, Custom Intent 3
I have no issue seeing how to create these intents and set them up. That is trivial. However, I can't seem to figure out an easy to migrate a user who has installed a widget from Version 1,0, and migrate it to a new Custom Intent. The widget just fails to load when I upgrade the app.
Does anyone have any insight on how I could do this migration? I don't want to push an update that just bricks all the widgets for the Version 1.0 users, and require them to remove them and set them up again.
