Aqara H2 switch - matter and apple home

Hi,
I’m looking for advice based on people’s experiences so far.
I currently have several H1 switches through my house.
I migrated most of my setup to matter, until I learnt the switches are exposed as lights and are not changeable. For the most part that’s fine.
I have one switch connected to a fan however so I’ve left that connected to a hub not connected via matter.

I have two more switches to replace.
Has anyone connected the new h2 switches via matter to apple home, what is your experience with these switches? What do they expose as?

I’m keen for them to be displayed as switches and not lights, as they are secondary switches and the primary lights are already set up.

@craigbarnes You seem to be experiencing an issue with wanting to know the exposure type (switch or light) of H2 switches when connected to Apple Home via Matter.
