Matter devices that work with Apple Home
Apple Home is the easiest place to run Matter when the whole household already uses iPhone, Apple Watch, HomePod and Apple TV. An iPhone on iOS 18 or later can add and control Matter accessories without a home hub, but Thread automations, notifications and remote control still need a HomePod mini, HomePod (2nd generation), a Thread-capable Apple TV 4K or a compatible border router. Each shortlist below includes only devices whose current documentation lists Apple Home support, and the reviews say which extras stay in the maker's app.
Apple Home shortlists by category
A device appears when its current documentation lists Apple Home support. Feature depth still varies by device, so read the review before relying on a specific control in the Home app.
