# About Scrypted is a high performance home video integration platform. Scrypted can bridge most cameras ([[Unifi]], Amcrest, [[Hikvision]], [[ONVIF]], RTSP, Ring, Arlo, Nest/Google, Tuya, Reolink, and more...) to the three major home hubs: **[[HomeKit]]** (including HomeKit Secure Video), Google Home, and Alexa. Scrypted streams are fast, low latency, and have rock solid reliability. Scrypted can be installed in [[Docker]] or as a Desktop App. # Sending Video to HomeKit[​](https://docs.scrypted.app/homekit.html#homekit) Cameras imported into Scrypted can be streamed to the iOS/macOS Home App including support for [HomeKit Secure Video](https://support.apple.com/guide/icloud/set-up-homekit-secure-video-mm7c90d21583/icloud). > [!INFO] > HomeKit Secure Video requires a HomePod or Apple TV. Detection of people, cars, and packages is done entirely on the Apple Home Hub. AI accelerators like Coral.ai are unnecessary. ## Camera Configuration[​](https://docs.scrypted.app/homekit.html#camera-configuration) Complete [Camera Configuration](https://docs.scrypted.app/camera-preparation.html) and [Add the Camera](https://docs.scrypted.app/add-camera.html) to Scrypted continuing with this setup. **Verify the camera streams are working properly within Scrypted**. There will be less moving parts when trying to troubleshoot issues. ## HomeKit Setup[​](https://docs.scrypted.app/homekit.html#homekit-setup) Install the `HomeKit Plugin`. The `HomeKit Plugin` will automatically enable itself on all the devices currently integrated into Scrypted. In any case, Verify the `HomeKit Plugin` is enabled for the camera. If it is not, enable it, then `Reload` the `HomeKit Plugin`.  ## HomeKit Pairing[​](https://docs.scrypted.app/homekit.html#homekit-pairing) Navigate to the Camera within Scrypted Management Console. View the `HomeKit` Settings and open the `Pairing` section. The pairing QR Code and manual codes can be found there. Use your iOS app to scan the QR Code and add it to the Home app.  ## HomeKit Secure Video[​](https://docs.scrypted.app/homekit.html#homekit-secure-video) HomeKit Secure Video (HKSV) requires cameras with motion sensors and specific codec settings. Both of these settings should have already been configured as part of the [Camera Configuration](https://docs.scrypted.app/camera-preparation.html). Enable `Stream and Recording` on the camera in the iOS Home app.  ## HomeKit Troubleshooting[​](https://docs.scrypted.app/homekit.html#homekit-troubleshooting) The [HomeKit Troubleshooting Guide](https://github.com/koush/scrypted/blob/main/plugins/homekit/README.md) can be found in the plugin or on Github.
