The “Driver for Wireless Control” is the description for gray-colored rectangular adaptors that let you plug varying numbers of non-obvious and useful light fixtures into them and control them via Homekit.

For example, we have IKEA picture lights above each of our bathroom cabinets. Inside each cabinet is the smallest of those gray things to power it and I paired motion sensors so when anyone is in a bathroom those lights come on. 

For the glass wall-mounted kitchen cabinets, we have one gray rectangle powering a puck light inside them as well as a countertop light mounted underneath.

Basically, it’s worth remembering that any IKEA lighting product that uses the little plugs that look like miniature network cables can plug into those gray rectangles and be controlled using HomeKit. 

If you have a new iPhone coming you may want to skip this beta and delete the beta Profile from your phone.

The reason is that you can’t migrate from a newer version of iOS to an older one. Since your new phone will ship with 12.0 on it, you’d have to go through initial set up and update iOS to the level of your existing phone before you can migrate, which is more of a hassle. 

We've been using them for a year or so with the lower price being the main attraction. I didn't install the Koogeek app, just added them directly by scanning the sticker using the HomeKit app. No Koogeek app means no firmware updates, but since they worked right out of the box and have kept working through power cuts, etc this seems a simpler way to go unless you encounter problems. We are using the always-awesome Apple AirPort Extreme, so your mileage may vary. I like them. Does what it says it will do with no fuss.
