package/CHANGELOG.md

@@ -45,6 +45,7 @@ All notable changes to `@homebridge-plugins/homebridge-govee` will be documented
 - feat: add the H5161 power strip and give the H7184 kitchen composter an on and off switch
 - feat: recognise three more sensors, which report what they send, and say plainly in the log why a sensor has no tile yet
 - feat: add ble encryption for the H3001 solar string lights, which silently ignore unencrypted frames (#1328) (@dominick-han)
+- fix: only mention an unrecognised bluetooth broadcast when the device is on your own account, since a scan also hears the neighbours
