But in the meantime, the products themselves can still be used through Matter-enabled smart home apps on Android.Īs we detailed earlier this year, the Google Home app works with Matter products completely independent of the manufacturer’s app. The company tells 9to5Google the app is still “in development” and won’t be ready for a bit longer. The update will enable Matter support on all of these devices for existing owners on iOS, but will also mean that the products can start working with Android via the Google Home app or Samsung SmartThings app.īuying a new version of the product is the route to go for Android users, as the update for existing models requires an iOS device and, as it stands, there’s still no Eve app available for Android. It’s available for purchase from Amazon and Eve’s website – Eve tells us the latter is the best bet for ensuring you’re getting a Matter-enabled unit, but Amazon is stocking the updated version.įor existing versions of the products, Eve is rolling out firmware upgrades to the smart plugs and sensors in North America, Europe, and the UK, starting on April 17.
Starting today, Eve is selling its Eve Energy Smart Plug with Matter enabled out of the box. Eve, a smart home brand, announced last year that it would bring its suite to Android on the back of Matter, and next month that’s finally coming to reality.
