![]() There is/was an Australian brand of Zigbee micro module which claimed to be fully exposed to HomeKit. ![]() It has been possible for a long time to add various Zigbee devices to the Hue hub but nearly all of them failed to be exposed to HomeKit. ![]() Hmmm, very interesting and what I hoped might be the case and more. Īt this time, Homebridge is required for this feat, which could be complicated for many normal users. Since the Matter certification in the case of Philips Hue does not apply to individual lamps, but to the Hue Bridge, all devices successfully connected to the bridge also appear via Matter afterwards. With a developer account, however, Matter can be tried out today. If you also have Zigbee lights from other manufacturers, such as by Osram or Ikea connected to the bridge, these will also be displayed in Apple’s smart home platform after the update and adding them to HomeKit again, as reported by our colleagues from Caschy’s blog. Matter has officially launched and over the last week numerous companies have announced updates and new devices. The Philips Hue Bridge has already received the Matter certification and is now awaiting the corresponding update, which should be released early next year. However, interested developers can already try it out today. The integration into HomeKit via Matter brings a decisive advantage. Signify, the parent company of Hue, will give the Philips Hue Bridge a Matter update in the first quarter of next year. ![]()
