Eve Home Matter update

Eve Home, the previously exclusive HomeKit smart home device maker, has announced that the promised matter update for the Eve Energy, Eve Door & Window and Eve Motion will start rolling out today. These devices will be the very first Thread products available for Matter on the market and make the company’s devices compatible with SmartThings to start.

When customers decide to upgrade to Matter, they’ll continue to enjoy the seamless experience in the Eve and Apple Home apps. Which means you can enjoy all the automations and controls with the Apple Home ecosystem. But once you’ve upgraded your devices to Matter you can’t migrate them back to HomeKit exclusive devices.
