Matter makes Govee’s new light strip more functional but less fun
To set up the Govee in Alexa after pairing it to Apple Home, I went to the Govee light’s settings in the Home app and tapped Turn On Pairing Mode. This generated a numerical code that I copied to paste into the Alexa app.
Multi-admin means you can pair a Matter device to more than one platform at the same time and control it with different apps and voice assistants. I could use both Siri and Alexa to control the light, and both did so quickly and correctly. I could ask it to turn on / off, dim / brighten, and change color.
I could pair it through Apple Home, but it showed offline in the Google Home app, and I couldn’t control it, despite repeated attempts at setting it up. I did have to use an Android phone to set it up as the Google Home iOS app still doesn’t support Matter . The Govee M1 Matter light strip is the first Govee product compatible with Apple Home and Samsung SmartThings thanks to Matter.. But Nanoleaf’s strip can only display one color at a time, it doesn’t get as bright, and doesn’t support music sync.
It’s still too early to tell whether Matter-over-Thread is more efficient or reliable than Matter-over-Wi-Fi. This is an excellent light strip that works with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple Home, but not Matter yet. TP-Link has said it will support Matter across its Tapo line, so this may get upgraded.
