Hi I can add the minir4m via matter using android, but it gets recognized as a smart plug instead of a switch…  
any ideas? 😕

I guess you’d contact Sonoff, Homey’s Matter just follows standards AFAIK.

What you could check with device settings: isn’t there a “whats plugged in” selector present?  
Maybe you can select the device-type you switch with the Sonoff unit:

yes I set light and it works, but the strange thing is that a while ago the same unit was recognized correctly… I just relocated that thing now and now it wont anymore…

Ah I see.  
Maybe you found a bug.
