On October 24, 2022, Samsung Electronics officially introduced the availability of Matter functionality. This will help your device seamless control via the SmartThings app.
Samsung says the availability will start once the SmartThings receive an over-the-air update. Through this update, SmartThings users can control their Matter devices from a single application, instead of using multiple apps from different device manufacturers.
Indeed, Samsung is the first company to receive Matter certification. As per the key information, the SmartThings supports a feature called multi-admin, which allows users to control their Matter devices from multiple platforms and apps.
Recently, Samsung together with Google announced a partnership to take multi-admin support to the next level. “We are now shifting from basic connectivity to building incredible experiences,” said Jaeyeon Jung, Corporate Vice President and Head of SmartThings, Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “Matter is the future, giving consumers extensive choice and smart device compatibility at scale. Today marks the most significant milestone yet toward mass smart home adoption.”
“We are committed to maintaining support for existing protocols while also helping the industry transition to a future built on Matter,” said Mark Tekippe, Vice President of Product at SmartThings and Connectivity Standards Alliance Board Member.
