FAQs
- What is “Matter Compatible?”
  - Matter compatible refers to the product’s ability to connect directly to leading smart home apps and voice assistants like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, Samsung SmartThings, and Apple Home for hands-free voice control and enhanced compatibility with other smart home devices.
- How does Matter Work?
  - Matter is based on Internet Protocol (IP). Which means Matter devices connect to your network through your existing Wi-Fi or Thread network and communicate with other devices that support the IP protocol using a common language.
- Are Matter devices out yet?
  - Yes, Matter launched in November 2022. Currently our Cync Direct Connect Smart Bulbs, Cync Smart Undercabinet Fixtures, Cync Reveal Smart Wafers, and Indoor Smart Plugs are Matter Compatible.
- Does Matter work over Wi-Fi?
  - Yes, Matter smart home standard works over Wi-Fi, as well as Thread. It doesn’t require a central bridge or hub. Devices talk directly to each other through Wi-Fi or Thread.
- Is Matter secure and private?
  - One of the primary reasons for Matter’s development is to keep devices secure—which will alleviate customer hesitation with smart home technology. The biggest advantage with Matter devices is that they have direct IP control. This allows the device to speak directly to Wi-Fi—so the only data that’s being shared is between you and the manufacturer. Plus, this new smart home standard minimizes the need for inputting passwords to connect different devices and ecosystems together—another benefit to Matter.
