Plugs, bulbs, switches, sensors, displays, cameras and doorbells; each note names the assistants a pick works with and any subscription it needs. Only devices the Connectivity Standards Alliance certifies carry the Matter logo, and multi-admin lets one device join several platforms. Matter works locally, so a Matter-only device needs a controller at home, like a smart speaker or hub, to be switched from away.
