Supported ecosystems include Aqara Home, Apple Home (Home Keys supported), Amazon Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings, Homey, Home Assistant, and others.
Where can I find videos or instructions on how to setup Apple Home app woth my Aqara U100?
How do I connect the U300 to Apple Home? It says any Thread / Matter hub (i.e. HomePod) works but when I try to add it as an accessory by scanning the Matter QR code via Apple Home, it recognises that Iām trying to add a lock but cannot connect to / find it.
