- Does the Kasa EP40M Matter Smart Outdoor Plug work with Apple Home or HomeKit?
- Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA23176MAT40689-24), 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.

- Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA23176MAT40689-24), 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.
