Short answer

Which Matter devices work with Home Assistant?

Our top CSA-certified picks are the Aqara Spatial Multi-Sensor FP400 (presence sensor, Thread), the Eve Energy Smart Plug (US/CA) (smart plug, Thread), the Leviton Decora Evolve Smart Switch Module (VM2S1) (switch module, Wi-Fi), the Aqara Smart Lock U400 (smart lock, Thread) and the Zemismart MT25B Thread Roller Shade Motor (shade motor, Thread); the Thread picks also need a Thread border router.

Home Assistant runs its own Matter controller, the Matter Server app, so a Matter device can join it without the maker’s cloud, though Home Assistant notes that some makers ask for an account before Matter can be turned on. Its documentation recommends Home Assistant OS for the app, the only supported option. (Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026)

We list 13 Matter products sold in the US, CSA certified for the exact model, whose maker’s own page names Home Assistant (4 sensors, 3 hubs and bridges, 2 switches, 1 blind or shade motor, 1 lock, 1 plug and 1 thermostat). 7 of them use Thread, so they also need a Thread border router.

Matter bridges and Home Assistant

A Matter bridge brings its maker’s non-Matter devices into Home Assistant over Matter; Home Assistant names the SwitchBot Hub 2, Aqara Hub M2, IKEA DIRIGERA and Philips Hue Bridge as examples. Home Assistant is not a bridge itself: it cannot turn its own Zigbee or other devices into Matter devices. (Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026)

Frequently asked questions

Does Home Assistant support Matter?

Yes. Home Assistant runs its own Matter controller as an app, the Matter Server, and adds Matter devices through its Companion app. Home Assistant OS is the only supported way to run it. (Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026)

Which Matter devices work with Home Assistant?

We list 13 Matter products sold in the US, CSA certified for the exact model, whose maker’s own page names Home Assistant (4 sensors, 3 hubs and bridges, 2 switches, 1 blind or shade motor, 1 lock, 1 plug and 1 thermostat). 7 of them use Thread, so they also need a Thread border router. Home Assistant’s documentation describes adding Matter devices in general; this list counts only the ones whose makers name Home Assistant themselves. (our catalog; makers’ pages; Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026)

Do I need a Thread border router for Home Assistant?

Only for Thread devices. Home Assistant can use a HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K, Nest Hub (2nd Gen) or Nest Wifi Pro, or act as one itself with a Thread radio such as Connect ZBT-1, Connect ZBT-2 or Yellow. (Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026; Home Assistant: Thread, read Oct 21, 2026)

Can I add a device that is already in Apple Home or Google Home?

Yes. Home Assistant’s documentation describes sharing a device from another Matter controller, such as Apple Home or Google Home, so it works in both. (Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026)

Can Home Assistant share its Zigbee devices with Matter apps?

No. Home Assistant says it is not a Matter bridge and cannot turn its existing devices into Matter devices. A maker’s Matter bridge can bring that maker’s devices into Home Assistant instead. (Home Assistant: Matter, read Oct 21, 2026)
