Amazon Bringing Matter to Echo Devices, But No iOS Support Until Early Next Year

[Caviar_X]

So the standard that would make all systems work together (Matter) can be limited to only some systems (Android)..? So… what was then the point of this ”universal” standard?!

Did you even bother to read the article?

Good to see Amazon jumping onto the Matter standard now too!

Amazon's Matter support will expand early next year to include iOS devices and Thread networking

ios 16.1 released late Oct 2022 with support for matter, Amazon would need the APIs in ios 16.1 for connectivity between Echo and ios apps.

So not limited to only some systems.
