I had 45+ accessories.....lights, blinds, thermostats, door locks, all gone. I do NOT want to have to manually add all of them back. I believe this happened when I upgraded to 12.4. Any ideas??

TIA!

Do you have another device, like and iPad, that has your HomeKit devices set up? Check that. Also, try logging out of iCloud, then Logging back in.

Same on both devices, and I did the iCloud logout/login.....same result.
 
What is the screen showing you? Startup or the dreaded “loading accessories and scenes?”

Do you have iCloud Keychain enabled?

I feel your pain. Lost everything too once. Was stuck on “loading accessories and scenes”.

On a side note, what blinds are you using?
 
Any luck with this? If you should have to re-do your whole HomeKit system (I been there and I understand your pain), then I recommend an app called “Controller for HomeKit” It allows you to save a backup of your whole HomeKit setup.
