Released a few months ago, the new Matter standard is making its way to the most popular smart home products available. Apple, for example, recently added it. Now, other companies are following the same path and introducing this new standard within their already-existing products, such as Eve.
To make sure your Eve device is properly updated, you’ll need a Thread Border Router capable Home Hub, such as the HomePod mini or the newest Apple TV 4K. Make sure to have the latest version of the Eve app and the iPhone’s operating system as well. Over time, the entire lineup of the currently 14 Thread-enabled Eve devices will receive free Matter firmware updates, with Matter-certified products in retail appearing in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, there’ll be a new Eve app for Android as it’s currently exclusive to iOS users.
