Quick answers

Is this light Matter certified?

Yes. MatterCatalog matches it to CSA Matter certificate CSA25G0FMAT48993-24, certified Dec 11, 2025.

Does this light work with Apple Home or HomeKit?

Yes. The maker’s own site names Apple Home, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25G0FMAT48993-24). 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.

Yes. The maker’s own site names Google Home, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25G0FMAT48993-24). 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).

Does this light work with Alexa?

Yes. The maker’s own site names Alexa, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25G0FMAT48993-24).

A Thread device needs an Echo with a built-in Thread border router, such as the Echo (4th Gen) or Echo Hub.

Does this light work with Home Assistant?

Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA25G0FMAT48993-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. 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.
