CTOnews.com, January 31, Samsung today updated its SmartThings application for iPhone and iPad, adding support for Matter devices. SmartThings, similar to Apple's HomeKit, is Samsung's smart home platform.

The SmartThings platform added support for the Matter protocol in October last year and has integrated Matter in the SmartThings center.

Prior to this update, users can only control the Matter accessories connected to SmartThings hub through the Android device.

After this update, users can control a variety of smart home products connected to the SmartThings platform on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. This is very useful for home users who use multiple platforms.
