Hi! Today I updated the iOS to 16.4 and added RaZberry to the HomeKit without any problems.
What exactly is the problem? Please, show a screenshot.

Updating to iOS 16.4 alone will not give you the new HomeKit architecture. You need to navigate to the Home settings in your Home.app and select the option to update to the new Home architecture there.

After the update, all Zway devices show no response.

So there is no desire to find and fix the problem?

I use new Home architecture on iPhone X with iOS 16.4. After update to the new Home architecture all devices works. But I noticed that the status of the device is not always updated. I'm trying to understand why this is happening.

@aivs
Do you have a current Apple TV as your HomeKit home hub?
I found that when I unplug my Apple TV, the Zway HomeKit control works again.
The new HomeKit architecture has the main difference that the iPhone Home app no longer asks all HomeKit devices individually for the status but only the Apple TV what the status of all devices is. And here in the communication between Zway and AppleTV must be the error.

Other unofficial HomeKit plugins also work without being updated. For example, the HomeKit firmware for Shelly devices that was last updated in August 2022: https://github.com/mongoose-os-apps/shelly-homekit

Don't feel like answering questions?
This would allow us to narrow down the error in the HomeKit Gate app.

Currently having a weird issue which started about 2 days ago (I must have triggered it with a HA update...), so i have multiple Aeotec MS6's which provide sensor data like motion, temperature etc. As of 2 days ago, only my motion, burgler, alarm data is reported to HA. A couple of other entities including temperature entities are 'dead' according to the integration. I tried to remove the entity and resync, but now it does now even pick up. For the integration, im using an Admin Account, so it should have access to ALL devices. Anybody experiencing this issue?

Do you see errors in the HA log?
