Overview
A homeowner or electrician replaces a standard wall switch with this smart switch, which uses screw terminals and a wall plate. It connects over Wi-Fi with Matter for several smart home platforms.
Matter certification and scheduling make it a flexible way to control lights from an app or voice. The limitation is the neutral wire requirement and the single pole design, which rule out many older boxes.
Who it's for
Homes that already use Apple Home, Alexa or Google gain scheduling and voice control. Older houses without neutral wires should check the box first.
Pros and cons
- Works with major platforms
- Timer and schedules
- Two switches in the pack
- Neutral wire required
- Single pole only
- Needs a Wi-Fi signal at the box
Performance notes
The switch powers its Wi-Fi radio through the neutral wire, so it can respond to commands. Matter lets the platforms control it locally. The listed wattage rating limits the lighting load it can switch.
