European furniture design and global IKEA sales have its own list of devices compatible with HomeKit, Apple's home automation system. A strong point for its raw materials is price, because it is limited to other types of products that also offer compatibility with the technology of Californians.
Connecting accessories is important to have a TRÅDFRI communication device, similar to Philips' suggestion. And even though the bulbs may already be integrated with HomeKit, other IKEA products are not currently feasible, such as the blind man and KADRILJ. Although the company has confirmed that support will arrive in the fall of 2019, we will have to wait until 2020.
Automatic blinds from 119 euros
It was a Twitter user who he asked to the British profile of the company where HomeKit support would come to them unnoticed, and that response this project should be added by early 2020, even though they didn't specify a month or less date, as HomeKit Hero reports.
Hello, HomeKit functionality should be added to the blind early next year.
Thank you,

IKEA is used to introduce home automation products to the market that will receive support from other platforms with a software update. An example is in the TRÅDFRI smart plugs, even though they have added HomeKit support first in the United States and internationally.
On the IKEA website we find two different models for the blind, FYRTUR and KADRILJ, available in various sizes and that starts from 119 euros in a smaller version. We hope that HomeKit funding comes soon and cancels it.
