I recently look at the specs of Matterbridge software and I find out a very interesting functionality. There is a main QR code to sync all devices and specific QR codes for each device or group. Can you please add this functionality to Matter under iHost?

At present I think it is just a matter bridge and they are adding matter hub features to it in the near future. Maybe this means they are already working on the feature you want.

Hey

I would assume you are asking for Matter Controller feature according to your description?

It might arrive latter this year after we have the big update ready for Zigbee compatibility and UI logic.

☹  
Initially, ihost Matter HUB was to be launched in the first half of 2024.

TBH, I did not expect it would come that fast from them, their roadmap is already ambitious;

Some other brand devices I have like IKEA even took over a year to add the promised matter feature and now they only support light for matter bridge; another two months passed, and still no expansion for the feature. 😑

Hi @ward, is this still the plan/schedule for matter controller functionality, end of the year?

I believe that as they said in another topic.

They are stabilizing and finalizing the Matter HUB of the NS Painel Pro.

I believe that after that they should port it to the iHost Cube.

Launch it in beta mode and start testing.

Because, thinking about it, how would the Matter HUB work?

It would connect the Matter products to the iHost for use within the iHost itself.

I believe that this HUB would only work for internal use of the iHost Cube.

I only see one advantage in having a Matter HUB in the iHost (in the current scenario that exists today in Matter) if it were a MATTER Thread HUB.

Besides that, the Matter devices that exist today are still minimal and are in their infancy.

I even understand the delay in developing this function.

That’s all I need. I’ll keep buying ZigBee devices for now!

That’s a safe option if you don’t fancy the unique features of Matter.

As it says, you would need an eWeLink Matter Hub to bring iHost’s devices to the eWeLink platform, ideally an NSPanel Pro.

Scenes created on ihost are executed locally on ihost. They will not be imported to ewelink.

I do not recommend buying NSPanel Pro at the moment. It is still a device in the testing phase and does not handle Mater and matter Bridge devices.

At the moment there is no 100% working method to connect ihost to the Ewelink platform.

I take my devices via matter from ihost to nspanel pro and they all go offline on ewelink

Mine too. I assumed it was something I had setup wrong because iHost to NS Panel Pro on the same LAN seems quite easy. I am on firmware 3.5 NS Panel Pro (I think that is the number) and have Developer Mode Enabled. Plus I don’t think any of my iHost temperature sensors ever appeared on the NS Panel Pro even when it first connected.

Offline from eWeLink only or all Matter platforms like Apple home either?

only on ewelink. Apple Home is my main platform and I export from ihost to homekit and everything works. But in the ewelink app everyone is offline.
