I am implementing a garage door opener. Apple documentation defines 5 states: open, closed, opening, closing and stopped.

Like with many garage doors, if I click the RF remote while the door is moving, it stops.

However, I am so far unable to use the 'stopped' status; there is no change in the Home app icon indicating this status.

Any suggestions or is this intended behaviour?

For me, the "stopped" state is indicated as "open" - which is correct, if you consider "half open" (or anything not fully closed) as "open".
My major problem is that any click in iOS toggles the "target state" like open-close-open, but the actual door opener device does open-stop-close-stop-open (unless it hits the endpoint, then it's the same). Overriding the target state with a notification from the device does not work reliably, unfortunately.
