&lt;p&gt;Yes, it is mentioned &lt;a href="https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Development-software/nrf5-sdk-for-homekit"&gt;here &lt;/a&gt;that the latest version of nRF5SDK Homekit was based on ADKv4. We do not know the efforts and risks that is involved in porting nRF5SDK for Homekit to use ADKv5 since we have not done those efforts inhouse.&lt;/p&gt;
[quote user=""]2.Thread homekit needs to use BLE to configure the network, does it also support BLE homekit?[/quote]
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Can you be more specific in what you mean here? Thread can use BLE for configuring and provisioning the device into the network. But the device being a thread homekit device can also be a BLE homekit device. I am not sure if we support that on all devices due to memory constraints.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Yes, that is my understanding aswell.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
