Native Wemo devices appear as duplicates in Home app

[geolocura]

Good evening,
Thank you for creating this Homebridge plugin! So far it appears to be a replacement for Wemo's physical bridge that is more stable :-)

Having said that, I have Wemo devices that are natively compatible with HomeKit and they now appear twice in the Home app: once natively and once via this plugin. Is there a way to tell the plugin to ignore these devices? Alternatively, what's the best approach to manage this to avoid duplicates in the Home app?

Thanks!

I know this is a 6 month old post but just in case you haven't figured it out yet: on the configuration page for the plugin, go to the corresponding section for the device you want to ignore (e.g. Outlets) and then add the serial number and a name for that device. It will give you some customization options, including a checkbox to ignore that device entirely, letting you stick with the native HomeKit implementation.

And i think the other option is to remove the HK native instance of the accessory. This is what I did because I found those instances, compared to those exposed by those plug-in, were less reliable.
They were always the ones with No Response every now and then.
