eufy and Matter: which eufy smart locks, robot vacuums and lights work with Matter, which hub you need, and how to set them up

eufy's Matter devices are smart locks — Thread models and Wi-Fi video locks — plus robot vacuums over Wi-Fi and the Permanent Outdoor Lights. Cameras and doorbells don't stream over Matter. You pair through Works with Matter in the eufy app, and you need the platform's Matter hub, with Apple on iOS 18 being the noted exception for local control.

The steps below come from eufy's support articles and product pages. eufy's pages disagree on whether a lock can use Matter and HomeBase 3 at once, so check your model's page. Certification facts come from the CSA's ledger.

Which eufy devices work with Matter

The CSA's certification ledger lists the eufy Matter devices by part number and transport. Thread + Bluetooth door locks include the Smart Lock C34 (T85D2), Smart Lock E30 (T85F1), Smart Lock E31 (T85F0), Smart Lock E34 / FamiLock E34 (T85P0), Smart Lock E35 / FamiLock E35 (T85P1), and FamiLock E32 (T85F2). Wi-Fi + Bluetooth door locks include the Video Smart Lock S3 Pro / FamiLock S3 Max (T85V0), Video Smart Lock S3 / FamiLock S3 (T85V0C), and FamiLock E40 (T85M0). All lock records are Matter 1.2. eufy's Matter hubs article groups the same part numbers into "Matter over Thread (For T85F0/85F1/85D2/85P0/85P1)" and "Matter over Wi-Fi (For T85V0/T85V0C)".

Robot vacuums are Wi-Fi only in the CSA's certification ledger. The ledger lists the Omni S1 (T2071, Matter 1.3), eufy Robot Vacuum (T2081, Matter 1.4), Omni E28 (T2352) and Omni E25 (T2353) — both Matter 1.3 then Matter 1.4 — Omni S2 Pro (T210T), Omni C28 (T211A), Omni E35 (T210M), Omni X12 Pro (T211AX), Omni C30 (T210Q) and C30 Lite (T210S), and a later Omni C30 Edge (T210Q) and Omni C30 (T210S) pair of records. The ledger names the T2352 and T2353 records only "eufy Robotic Vacuum". eufy's E25/E28 vacuum Matter FAQ maps T2353 to the Omni E25 and T2352 to the Omni E28. eufy's Matter vacuum blog post names the eufy Robot Vacuum S2 and the Omni E28 and E25 as Matter-supporting examples.

For lights, the CSA's certification ledger lists the Permanent Outdoor Lights S4 (T8L04) as an extended colour light over Wi-Fi + Bluetooth, Matter 1.2, and the Permanent Outdoor Light E32 (T8L04) as Matter 1.5. The S4 product page says the S4 is "Compatible with the Matter protocol" for Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa. The Verge reported in June 2026 that the FamiLock E32, E40, and E35 are Matter-compatible smart locks first announced at CES 2026.

What does not work: cameras and doorbells. The E40 product page says "Camera streams are not supported via Matter due to current limitations," and the S3 Max bundle page repeats that. The CSA's certification ledger lists model entries without a certification record for the Smart Lock E38 (T8532), Smart Lock S4 Max (T85M1), Smart Lock E38 with Video Display, and bridge-type entries for HomeBase S380, HomeBase Mini, HomeBase Professional S1, Network Video Recorders S4/E50, Anker MindBase / MindBase 2, and the Smart Security Panel. No eufy page fetched here describes Matter for those. MatterCheck tracks 4 eufy products out of 391 products: three Thread door locks (FamiLock E32, Smart Lock C34, Smart Lock E30) and one Wi-Fi robot vacuum (Robot Vacuum Omni S2 Pro). Our products page lists them with sources, and you can learn how to check CSA certification yourself.

Thread, Wi-Fi and which hub you need

eufy's Matter hubs article splits locks into two groups: Matter over Thread for T85F0/85F1/85D2/85P0/85P1, and Matter over Wi-Fi for T85V0/T85V0C. The CSA's certification ledger adds the FamiLock E32 (T85F2) as Thread + Bluetooth and the FamiLock E40 (T85M0) as Wi-Fi + Bluetooth. Vacuums are Wi-Fi only in the ledger, and the S4 lights are Wi-Fi + Bluetooth. If you're unsure which transport suits your home, see Thread vs Wi-Fi.

eufy's lock Matter FAQ Q3 says it depends on the platform: Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings need a compatible hub from that brand that supports Matter. With Apple Home on iOS 18, you can add and control Matter devices without a hub, and iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max and later can control Thread devices without a hub — but a hub is required for remote operation. eufy's Matter hubs article states it more bluntly: "A Matter hub is required for integration with the ecosystems of Apple Home, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Samsung SmartThings." The two eufy statements differ for Apple on iOS 18, so treat the hubs article as the general rule and the FAQ as the iOS 18 exception.

Hub examples from eufy's Matter hubs article: for Thread locks, Apple Home lists HomePod (2nd Gen), HomePod mini, Apple TV 4K (3rd Gen) Wi-Fi + Ethernet, and Apple TV 4K (2nd Gen); Alexa lists Echo (4th Gen), Echo Show 10 (3rd Gen), Echo Hub, eero Pro 6/6E and eero Max 7; Google Home lists Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max, and Nest Wi-Fi Pro; SmartThings lists Aeotec Smart Home Hub, SmartThings Station, SmartThings Hub Dongle, and SmartThings Hub v3. The Wi-Fi table adds more Echo models, Apple HomePod, Apple TV, and iPad. eufy's Matter smart locks page says eufy Matter smart locks "do not require a separate eufy HomeBase for basic direct control in the eufy app on supported models." Platform rules: Apple's Matter page says iOS 18 or later can add and control Matter accessories without a home hub, with iPhone 15 Pro or later for Thread accessories. Google's Matter page says you need a Matter-enabled hub and IPv6 enabled. Amazon's Matter page says install the device within 30 ft of a compatible Alexa hub. SmartThings' Matter page says Thread devices need a Matter controller with a Thread border router. For the full hub picture, see hubs and Thread border routers.

How to add a eufy device to Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant

The pattern is the same across platforms: set up the device in the eufy app first, have a compatible hub in the platform app, start pairing from the eufy app's Works with Matter menu, then scan the Matter QR code in the platform app. See how to add a Matter device and, if you've lost the code, what to do with a lost setup code.

In the eufy app

  1. Set up the device in the Anker eufy app if you haven't already.
  2. Make sure a compatible Matter hub is added to your third-party ecosystem app.
  3. In the Anker eufy app, go to Device Page > Settings > Works with Matter > Connect to Third-party Ecosystem.
  4. Select Apple, Google Home, or Alexa, then tap Start pairing. For the C34/E30, eufy's C34/E30 Matter article says the path is Lock Settings > Work with Matter, and the LED blinks blue when in pairing mode.
  5. For the E25/E28 vacuums, eufy's E25/E28 vacuum Matter FAQ says to name all rooms in the app's map editing first, then open the sidebar on the main map screen and select "Work with Matter," choose the device, and tap "Connect to Third-Party Ecosystem."

Apple Home

eufy's Apple Home article says to open the Home app on iPhone or iPad (iOS 16.1 or higher), tap the + icon, select "Add Accessory," scan the device's Matter QR code, assign a room and name, then Continue and Done. Apple's Matter page says with iOS 18 or later you can add Matter accessories without a home hub, and previously paired accessories can be added from any supporting app. More in Apple Home's Matter support.

Google Home

eufy's Google Home article says to open the Google Home app, select "Add," choose "Matter-enabled device," and scan the Matter QR code. iPhone users need iOS 16.1 or higher. Google's Matter page adds that IPv6 must be enabled on your home network. More in Google Home's Matter support.

Alexa

eufy's Alexa article says to open the Alexa app, tap the + icon, select "Matter," confirm you have a Matter device, then scan the QR code or enter the numeric code. Amazon's Matter page says to install the device within 30 ft of a compatible Alexa hub and confirm a Thread-enabled device is online for Thread accessories. More in Alexa's Matter support.

SmartThings

No eufy SmartThings steps were found in the fetched eufy articles — eufy's hubs article only lists SmartThings hubs. SmartThings' Matter page says to open the SmartThings app, select Add (+) > Add Device, scan the QR code or enter the setup code, choose the hub and room, and wait for connection. More in SmartThings' Matter support.

Home Assistant

eufy doesn't document Home Assistant. Home Assistant's Matter docs say to install the Matter integration, use the Companion app for commissioning over Bluetooth, and scan the QR code or enter the commission code. For Thread devices you need a Thread border router such as HomePod Mini, Apple TV 4K, Nest Hub (2nd Gen), or Home Assistant's OpenThread Border Router. More in Home Assistant's Matter support.

What each platform can do with a eufy lock, vacuum or light

For locks, eufy's Apple Home article lists: lock/unlock in the Home app, lock/unlock with Siri on iPhone or iPad (unlocking not supported on HomePod), status, battery level, "Create and manage 24/7 access," and auto lock/unlock on leaving or arriving. eufy's Google Home article lists: lock/unlock in the Google Home app, lock by voice with Google Nest (unlocking not currently supported), status, and battery level; the article says certain advanced functions, such as creating and managing access, are not yet supported by Google Home. eufy's Alexa article lists: lock/unlock in the Alexa app and by voice with Echo — voice unlock needs enabling and a password in the Alexa app — plus status; creating or managing access, such as adding or deleting user codes, via Alexa is not supported. If Apple Home keeps showing "Battery Low," eufy's lock Matter FAQ says to check the battery in the Anker eufy app and update to iOS 18 or later. See Matter smart lock support.

For the S4 lights, eufy's S4 Matter features article says Matter platforms such as Apple Home, Google Home and Alexa give voice control of the strip's power, on/off, brightness, and a uniform colour or colour temperature for the whole strip. Some platforms, such as Apple Home, support automations like turning the strip on or off on arrival or departure, and syncing with eufy smart locks. Segmented colour effects, music sync, and radar motion triggers stay in the Anker eufy app. eufy's S4 radar article says the radar "currently supports only eufy-branded light strips" and cannot trigger third-party Matter devices. eufy's S4 automation article says the S4 can act as a response device (Action) in eufy automations but cannot be used as a trigger. See Matter light bulb support.

For vacuums, eufy's E25/E28 vacuum Matter FAQ covers naming rooms before Apple Home so HomeKit can identify and clean each room, and says the eufy Clean app has upgraded to Matter 1.4. eufy doesn't list further Apple Home vacuum controls beyond room cleaning. Platform-level results are in MatterCheck's robot vacuum table below. See Matter robot vacuum support.

HomeBase 3, cameras and using several Matter apps

eufy's pages conflict on HomeBase 3. eufy's lock Matter FAQ Q2 says: "Currently, locks connected via HomeBase 3 cannot use Matter. However, this function will be supported in a future firmware update." The S3 Max bundle page says: "Matter is now compatible with HomeBase™ 3 for simultaneous use." The E40 product page says: "Currently, it cannot connect to HomeBase 3 and external smart home ecosystem gateway simultaneously." Treat this as model-dependent and check your model's product page before relying on it.

Cameras and doorbells don't stream over Matter. eufy's HomeKit article says HomeKit is available on eufyCam S3 Pro, eufy Smart Lock E30/E31/C34, IndoorCam E30, Indoor Cam Pan & Tilt 2K, Indoor Cam 2K, eufyCam 2/2Pro, and eufyCam 2C/2C Pro connected to eufy HomeBase 2. eufy's Apple Home feature guide says battery-powered cameras reach Apple Home through a HomeBase bridge, and wired devices are authorised from the device's settings page in the Anker eufy app. That's HomeKit, not Matter — see Matter camera and doorbell support and Matter vs HomeKit.

eufy's articles don't describe adding one lock to several Matter platforms at once. Each Connect to Third-party Ecosystem pairing starts from the eufy app's Works with Matter menu. Home Assistant's Matter docs describe Multi Fabric — joining the same device to multiple controllers — but eufy's pages don't state how many fabrics a eufy device supports. See multi-admin and sharing.

Each entry: pairs / usable as an automation trigger (confidence), per Matter device type in MatterCheck's data — not a test of eufy products. eufy Permanent Outdoor Lights certify as extended colour lights, which MatterCheck groups under dimmable / colour lights.

MatterCheck checks 27 Matter device types on 7 platforms and tracks 4 eufy products (FamiLock E32, Thread; Smart Lock C34, Thread; Smart Lock E30, Thread; Robot Vacuum Omni S2 Pro, Wi-Fi). These results are per Matter device type, not tests of eufy products, and the confidence label shows how sure MatterCheck is about each result. eufy locks certify as door locks, the vacuums as robotic vacuum cleaners and the Permanent Outdoor Lights as extended colour lights. Door locks pair on all seven platforms and work as automation triggers on all of them; Google Home control and Google Home and Alexa lock actions are Partial. For robot vacuums, Apple Home can't use one as an automation trigger, Alexa triggers are Unknown and Hubitat is Unknown; for colour lights, Alexa triggers are Partial and Hubitat is Unknown. See the door lock, robot vacuum, dimmable / colour light and platform comparison pages for the sources.

When a eufy device won't pair or stops responding

For deeper fixes, see a device that won't pair, a device that's offline, removing and factory-resetting, and IPv6 / VLAN network setup. The eufy articles we fetched don't include factory-reset steps, so follow your model's user guide and MatterCheck's reset guide above.

Frequently asked questions

Does eufy work with Matter?

Yes, for specific device types. The CSA's certification ledger lists eufy door locks, robot vacuums, and the Permanent Outdoor Lights S4 and the Permanent Outdoor Light E32 as Matter-certified. Cameras and doorbells don't stream over Matter — eufy's E40 product page says "Camera streams are not supported via Matter due to current limitations."

Which eufy smart locks support Matter?

The CSA's certification ledger lists the Smart Lock C34 (T85D2), Smart Lock E30 (T85F1), Smart Lock E31 (T85F0), Smart Lock E34 / FamiLock E34 (T85P0), Smart Lock E35 / FamiLock E35 (T85P1), FamiLock E32 (T85F2), Video Smart Lock S3 Pro / FamiLock S3 Max (T85V0), Video Smart Lock S3 / FamiLock S3 (T85V0C), and FamiLock E40 (T85M0). The Smart Lock E38, Smart Lock S4 Max and Smart Lock E38 with Video Display have ledger entries without a certification record.

Do eufy Matter locks use Thread or Wi-Fi?

Both. eufy's Matter hubs article says T85F0/85F1/85D2/85P0/85P1 use Thread and T85V0/T85V0C use Wi-Fi. The CSA's certification ledger adds the FamiLock E32 (T85F2) as Thread and the FamiLock E40 (T85M0) as Wi-Fi.

Do I need a hub for a eufy Matter lock?

It depends on the platform. eufy's lock Matter FAQ says Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings need a compatible hub from that brand. Apple Home on iOS 18 can add and control Matter devices without a hub, and iPhone 15 Pro or later can control Thread devices without one, but remote operation needs a hub. eufy's Matter hubs article states a hub is required for all four ecosystems.

Do eufy cameras and doorbells work with Matter?

No. eufy's E40 product page and S3 Max bundle page both say camera streams are not supported via Matter. eufy cameras reach Apple Home through HomeKit instead — eufy's HomeKit article and Apple Home feature guide describe authorising in the Anker eufy app, with battery cameras going through a HomeBase bridge.

Which eufy robot vacuums support Matter?

The CSA's certification ledger lists the Omni S1 (T2071), eufy Robot Vacuum (T2081), Omni E28 (T2352), Omni E25 (T2353), Omni S2 Pro (T210T), Omni C28 (T211A), Omni E35 (T210M), Omni X12 Pro (T211AX), Omni C30, Omni C30 Lite and Omni C30 Edge — all Wi-Fi. The ledger's T2352 and T2353 records are named "eufy Robotic Vacuum". eufy's Matter vacuum blog post names the Robot Vacuum S2, Omni E28, and Omni E25 as examples.

Where is the eufy Matter QR code?

eufy's lock pairing article says the Matter QR code is on a white sticker located at the top inside the battery compartment. That article is about pairing the lock to the Anker eufy app. eufy's Alexa article says you can scan the QR code or enter the numeric code.

Can a eufy lock use Matter and HomeBase 3 at the same time?

eufy's pages conflict. eufy's lock Matter FAQ says locks connected via HomeBase 3 cannot use Matter, with support planned in a future firmware update. The S3 Max bundle page says "Matter is now compatible with HomeBase™ 3 for simultaneous use." The E40 product page says it cannot connect to HomeBase 3 and an external smart home gateway simultaneously. Check your model's product page.
