Smartblinds & Apple HomeKit
Smartblinds are, as the name suggests, smart operatable window blinds. These window blinds come with a motor, the Eve Motionblinds Matter motor which you can connect directly to Apple HomeKit. All you need for this in your home is an Apple smart hub. This smart hub acts as the central point in your smart home and is thus needed to control your Smartblinds when you are away from home, for example.

Which Apple smart hub do you need?
So to connect to your Apple Home, you need a smart hub. This smart hub acts as a Matter and Thread border router.

The following hubs are suitable as Matter and Thread border routers:

  • The Apple HomePod Mini (all generations)
