    How to delete a device in Insteon+ app? No “delete device” shows in edit device

    I’m valiantly trying to get my HubPro to run my Insteon wall switches for the sake of HomeKit compatibility. I need to delete a device but can’t. According to online documentation, in the Insteon+ app you select edit devices, then the device you want to delete, then hit “delete”. So easy! Except where there is supposed to a delete button there isn’t one.

    Am am I missing something?

    Based on everything I’ve been reading, I’m guessing this whole thing is a lost cause at this point. Insteon should be ashamed at this mess.

    Last I saw, everything must be done through the IOS home app itself.

      I gave up on Hub Pro HomeKit support years ago (and there appear to be no updates since, so it is likely a totally dead product, a total shame on Insteon). I recently spent about $40 total and setup a homebridge server running on a raspberry pi zero W board, and use a 2245 hub. This setup works flawlessly. I'm so happy I didn't need to replace all my Insteon devices with native HomeKit ones. You can also replicate this setup for free if you have an always-on PC at home to run the software on.

      Here are the relevant links for the software and plugin I use:

        Try to restart the Insteon+ app after forcing it to shut down. This action can assist in resolving any momentary bugs or issues that may be impairing the functionality of the program
