Matter 1.3 Specification Released - Will power monitoring now be supported by Homey?

@Bram_C To add and update Eve Smart Plug in Eve App have you used a Google Nest Hub with Matter support or have you used only Homey as Matter hub?

The NOUS Smart Matter Socket A8M are also not reporting energy consumption after the update.

Hi @s_dimaio. If you use the Eve-app and select your Google Home network, I think it uses the Matter network from your Google Nest hubs.
After the firmware has been updated, I removed the Eve Energy plugs from the Eve-app / Google Home and reinstall it in Homey using the Homey Matter network.
Hope this helps.

Thanks @Bram_C. Unfortunately I don’t have a Google Nest Hub but, in addition to Homey, I only have an Echo 8 with matter support but the Eve app doesn’t recognize it. I’ll try to get an Homepod from some friend and update with that.

@Doekse as you can see from these posts, until Homey doesn’t implement the ability to update the firmware of matter devices, new Homey features like energy meter on matter are unusable. If Homey wants to be an universal hub, it can’t depend on third-party hubs to update connected devices

Recent post in a TPLink forum indicates we may be close to seeing Matter 1.3 compliance available on the Tapo P110M Matter plugs: Tapo P110M update for Matter 1.3 - Smart Home Community

For the people with a Aqara U200. There is a matter update for the lock which give you the 3 options for close/open and pull latch. :partying_face:

you need to repair the U200 after the update in the Aqara app.
