What is Matter?
Matter controllers manage your smart home devices that support Matter; using the universal Matter protocol, requiring continuous power and network connection. Other Matter controllers in the market are Apple HomePod, Google Nest Hub, Samsung SmartThings Hub or Amazon Alexa Echo Hub.
Matter bridges translate the language of non-Matter devices, such as Philips Hue bulbs or Aqara sensors, enabling them to integrate seamlessly into a Matter-enabled ecosystem.
The Flic Hubs have been updated to support Matter. Meaning that your Flic buttons & Flic Twists will automatically support all enabled Matter-devices, too. It will make ANY Matter device controllable with a push of a button, or using Advanced Dimming of the Twist by assigning actions to specific points on the dial.
With Matter, you’re free to mix devices from different brands without being tied to one app or ecosystem, unlocking a world of smart home possibilities. This further strengthens the wide array of products you can manage or control with Flic.
