This is a long standing known issue with no movement. The code fix has been in place for months but no release attempts have been made. https://github.com/home-assistant/iOS/issues/547

Suggestion, perhaps dev of the Android and iOS companion apps should be moved in house to Nabu Casa?

This is not a fix but more of a bandage until the app is fixed, but if anyone wants to try it it seems to be working…
