Hello,

I have bought a Night Light from Third Reality ([https://3reality.com/product/matter-smart-color-night-light/?gad\_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC9qUc7hyNteV5YlvymyxR7efX0V8&gclid=CjwKCAjwx4O4BhAnEiwA42SbVOd2KZCRQQ3XrrOgUc4HGPR2lV8SESvJNmmYeEnl-06c3cuv5JiDWhoCMH0QAvD\_BwE](https://3reality.com/product/matter-smart-color-night-light/?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC9qUc7hyNteV5YlvymyxR7efX0V8&gclid=CjwKCAjwx4O4BhAnEiwA42SbVOd2KZCRQQ3XrrOgUc4HGPR2lV8SESvJNmmYeEnl-06c3cuv5JiDWhoCMH0QAvD_BwE)) and can not be connected with Homey. There is an app for Homey and when I try to add the device by following the manual and app, light can not be found by Homey. Do anyone has a similar problem?

Regards !  
-Jaka.

It’s a Matter-over-wifi device, in theory there’s no app needed.  
Did you already try to add it directly as Matter device?

I did and is also not working. I also try it to add to the Apple Home Kit but I was not successful.

So you scan the QR code with your phone and then what happens?

If I go via Homey at the end I get “Unable to connect - The device is not certified for Matter and cannot be added to Homey Pro”. It seems that Homey doesn’t like any Matter device.

Homey doesn’t like _uncertified_ Matter devices, although [someone else](https://community.homey.app/t/issues-adding-a-matter-over-thread-dimmer/117235) got the same problem recently with a device that _was_ certified. So it could be a bug in Homey.

Please contact Athom: [https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360015784034-Submitting-a-support-request](https://support.homey.app/hc/en-us/articles/360015784034-Submitting-a-support-request)

There’s nothing the community can do for you ☹

Does not seem to be a bug

Regarding the certified device [Homey is not fully matter compatible, cant add CSA device listed to work for all certified matter platforms](https://community.homey.app/t/issues-adding-a-matter-over-thread-dimmer/117235); Athom is referring me to the manufacturer.

Thank you anyway for your help @robertklep.
