Thanks,

Conclusion: Using the “Aqara T1 relay” in a direct Zigbee connection to Homey with the Aqara App ([[APP] Aqara & Xiaomi Smart Home - Simplify your life with a smarter home](https://community.homey.app/t/app-aqara-xiaomi-smart-home-simplify-your-life-with-a-smarter-home/156)) gives a richer experience than using a Matter connection over the “Aqara M3 hub” to Homey.

Maybe you can change the options how the Relay is reported to Matter (as a Light, Cooker, Heater, Fan, etc…) in the M3 configuration?
