New Ecobee Video Doorbell does NOT support HKSV

I wonder why they chose not to integrate HomeKit Secure Video into their new wired doorbell. Maybe to force you to purchase their subscription plan? Either way, my search for a good vertical view HKSV continues!
same here. who here owns the ecobee thermostat? how is it?
I have it and I like it. Only thing I don’t like is that if you change the temperature in HomeKit, you can’t go back to the scheduled temperature easily. It would resume your schedule automatically at the correct times, but if you lower the temp in HomeKit to have cool air when you’re doing something active, you have to go to the ecobee app or physical thermostat to resume your current schedule. The native app works well though and I like its features also. I’d recommend it.
I mostly love it. I have integrations with both HomeKit and Home Assistant that I use once in a while, but prefer the Ecobee app.
It needs a battery backup. Sometimes when the power goes out briefly, it doesn’t boot up again. In the winter, this could be disastrous if you aren’t home. I worry when on vacation and constantly check the temp at home.
It's...okay. The hardware is decent, but the software (particularly the iOS app) has always been terrible.
