Eve Launches First Android App for Matter-Enabled Thermo
Eve Systems, known for its Apple-exclusive smart home products, has released its first Android app alongside Matter support for the Eve Thermo smart radiator valve. This move marks a significant expansion for Eve, bringing its products to a wider audience.
Previously limited to Apple's ecosystem, Eve began its transition to Matter compatibility in 2023. The "Eve for Matter" Android app, specifically designed for the Eve Thermo, allows Android users to control and automate their heating systems.
While the Eve Thermo leverages Matter for broader compatibility, the app integrates with Google Home APIs for enhanced functionality. This integration enables users to create schedules, manage parental controls, and adjust temperature offsets directly within the Google Home environment.
