How to display the "MANUFACTURER" UI in the Home app accessory details

I found that some HomeKit accessories have an "MANUFACTURER" UI interface on the details page in the Home app (as shown in the red box in the accessory image). I developed my own HomeKit accessory and also developed a HomeKit accessory app, but my accessory does not have an "MANUFACTURER" UI interface on the details page in the Home app. What should I do to make my accessory have an "MANUFACTURER" UI interface on the accessory details page in the Home app?

Are these accessories MFI licensed?

As far as I'm aware, the only reason that interface would be missing is that the accessory is not an MFI accessory. If you're part of the MFI program, then you should contact the MFI program so they can help you sort this out.
