A computer-readable storage medium configured to store computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a user device, cause the user device to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, by the user device, a connection request from an accessory that was previously connected to a first hub device, wherein the user device is configured to manage one or more accessory devices and one or more hub devices;
• receiving, by the user device from the accessory, accessory attribute information;
• obtaining, by the user device, second information about a second hub device and third information about a third hub device;
• determining, by the user device, based at least in part on at least one of the accessory attribute information, the second information about the second hub device, or the third information about the third hub device, whether the accessory is to connect to the second hub device or the third hub device;
• in accordance with a determination that the accessory is to connect to the second hub device, providing, by the user device, instructions to the second hub device to connect to the accessory;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the accessory is to connect to the third hub device, providing, by the user device, instructions to the third hub device to connect to the accessory.

A user device, comprising:

• a memory configured to store computer-executable instructions;
• and
• a processor configured to connect to the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to at least:
• receive, by the user device, a connection request from an accessory that was previously connected to a first hub device, wherein the user device is configured to manage one or more accessory devices and one or more hub devices;
• receive, by the user device from the accessory, accessory attribute information;
• obtain, by the user device, second information about a second hub device and third information about a third hub device;
• determine, by the user device, based at least in part on at least one of the accessory attribute information, the second information about the second hub device, or the third information about the third hub device, whether the accessory is to connect to the second hub device or the third hub device;
• in accordance with a determination that the accessory is to connect to the second hub device, provide, by the user device, instructions to the second hub device to connect to the accessory;
• and
• in accordance with a determination that the accessory is to connect to the third hub device, provide by the user device, instructions to the third hub device to connect to the accessory.
