Quick answers

Is the IKEA ALPSTUGA air quality monitor Matter certified?

Yes. MatterCatalog matches it to CSA Matter certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24, certified Jan 8, 2026.

Does the IKEA ALPSTUGA air quality monitor work with Apple Home or HomeKit?

Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. The maker hasn’t named Apple Home on a page we hold. Apple says an iPhone using iOS 18 or later can add Matter accessories to the Home app without a home hub. A Thread accessory needs a Thread-enabled home hub such as an Apple TV 4K, HomePod (2nd generation) or HomePod mini, or a compatible third-party Thread border router.

Does the IKEA ALPSTUGA air quality monitor work with Google Home?

Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. The maker hasn’t named Google Home on a page we hold. Google says you need a Matter-enabled hub device set up on your home wireless network before you can add Matter devices to Google Home. A Thread device needs a hub that is also a Thread border router: Google Home Speaker (2026), Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max, Nest Wifi Pro (Wi-Fi 6E) or Google TV Streamer (4K). Google’s supported-device-types page lists the Air Quality Sensor type.

Does the IKEA ALPSTUGA air quality monitor work with Alexa?

Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. The maker hasn’t named Alexa on a page we hold. Alexa needs a Matter-compatible Echo; Amazon says its Echo devices support “a subset of Matter 1.5 and lower device types”, so check that yours does. A Thread device needs an Echo with a built-in Thread border router, such as the Echo (4th Gen) or Echo Hub.

Does the IKEA ALPSTUGA air quality monitor work with Samsung SmartThings?

Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. The maker hasn’t named SmartThings on a page we hold. SmartThings adds Matter devices through the SmartThings app and a Matter controller. Samsung says a Thread device needs a Matter controller that includes a Thread border router; the latest SmartThings Hub, SmartThings Station, Samsung TVs and Samsung Family Hub refrigerators have a Thread border router built in.

Does the IKEA ALPSTUGA air quality monitor work with Home Assistant?

Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. The maker hasn’t named Home Assistant on a page we hold. Home Assistant says: “Adding a new Matter device only works in the Home Assistant Companion app.” A Thread device needs a Thread border router, which Home Assistant describes as a network device that connects a Thread mesh network to other IP networks such as Ethernet or Wi-Fi.

What you need to use it with Matter

Thread border router

Needed: it uses Matter over Thread (CSA certificate CSA2602MMAT49502-24). Apple names the Apple TV 4K, HomePod (2nd generation) and HomePod mini; Google names the Google Home Speaker (2026), Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max, Nest Wifi Pro (Wi-Fi 6E) and Google TV Streamer (4K).

IKEA DIRIGERA hub

Optional when your platform already has one of those. IKEA says DIRIGERA includes Thread border router functionality, so it can be the one you use.

Philips Hue Bridge

Not a Thread border router: Philips Hue lists its protocols as Bluetooth and Zigbee. To use this with Hue lights, add both to the same Matter platform.
