The smart home industry has long been plagued by compatibility issues between different brands and platforms. Matter is here to change that. Developed by the Connectivity Standards Alliance (CSA), Matter is an open-source, industry-unifying standard that allows smart home devices from different manufacturers to communicate effortlessly.
With Matter-certified devices, you no longer have to worry about whether a gadget will work with Amazon Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, or Smart Life App—because Matter ensures seamless interoperability.
But what role does Smart Life App play in this ecosystem? Let’s explore how Matter and Smart Life work together to create a smarter, more connected home.
Why Matter Matters for Your Smart Home
1. Stronger Security and Reliable Local Control
Security is a major concern in smart homes. Matter uses end-to-end encryption and access management to protect your privacy. Additionally, unlike cloud-dependent smart devices, Matter supports local control.
2. Ultimate Compatibility Across Platforms
With Matter, you can control devices from different brands using a single app of your choice. That means you can for example use Alexa, Google Home, or Apple Home to control Matter-enabled Smart Life devices
or can Combine devices from different brands into one seamless system.
3. Simple Setup – Just Scan and Connect
Matter simplifies the device setup process. No more complicated configurations!
Simply scan the Matter QR code on your device using Smart Life App , and the setup process is automated.
How Smart Life App Supports Matter
1. Smart Life as a Matter Controller (Hub)
A Matter Controller (or Hub) is the brain of your Matter-enabled smart home. It connects and controls all Matter-certified devices. The Smart Life App is designed to function as a Matter Controller, allowing you to:
✔️ Add, manage, and automate all your Matter-compatible devices
✔️ Control smart devices locally or remotely
✔️ Create customized automation routines for your home
2. Smart Life as a Matter Commissioner
A Matter Commissioner is required for onboarding new devices into the Matter ecosystem. With Smart Life App, you can easily add Matter-supported smart plugs, lights, sensors, and more—without any hassle.
3. Smart Life App & Matter Bridge
What about older smart devices that don’t support Matter? No worries! With a Matter Bridge, you can connect non-Matter devices to Smart Life App and still control them alongside your new Matter-enabled devices.
