    I have two groups of 3 bulbs in the living room and bedroom. Currently I have to toggle all the living room lights one by one to turn on/off. Is there a way to group all 3 of them together so I only need to touch one button in the HomeKit app to turn them on and off?

    You can add the bulbs to a "room" this groups them and you can then you can tell Siri to turn on/ off the "living room"(ex.) lights. As for a single toggle possibly creating a scene would do that.

    i have a similar set up. You can group the bulbs together. I have several lamps in my living room and have grouped them all together under "Living Room Lamps".

    Click on 1 of the lights and go to details.

    Scroll down to "Group with Other Accessories. From there you can choose what bulbs to include and what ot call them.

    Viola!
