Google Home suits people managing compatible devices such as cameras, doorbells, speakers, thermostats, lights, locks, and appliances. Away-from-home control of Matter devices requires a Matter hub.
It suits people who want to control IKEA smart products from an Android or iOS app, with options for grouping devices and scheduling routines. Matter device owners can use compatible smart home apps without DIRIGERA.
