Matter with Nanoleaf

kcroyaljosh — Sun, 07 May 2023 20:16:56 GMT

I can’t get matter Nanoleaf device to connect via google home app. I followed all the directions from both Nanoleaf and Google Home and it does not work. The instructions from Google Home aren’t even correct anymore. I know the lights work because I connected it prior to the thread board router on my Alexa. i’m trying to hook up a different light on a different net work at a different house.

Your Google device might be incompatible.
If you want To control a Matter-enabled device with the Google Home app or Google Assistant, you need a Google device that acts as a hub for Matter. Many Google devices have received software updates so they can work as a hub for Matter:

Speakers: Google Home, Google Home Mini, Nest Mini, Nest Audio
Displays: Nest Hub (1st gen), Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max
Wi-Fi routers: Nest Wifi Pro (Wi-Fi 6E)

If you want to connect matter via thread The only devices that have a thread border router are as stated by google

The following Google devices can act as a Thread border router with Google Home:

Displays: Nest Hub (2nd gen), Nest Hub Max
Wi-Fi routers: Nest Wifi Pro (Wi-Fi 6E)

Hello kcroyaljosh,

Thanks for posting here in the Community.

A few questions: what's the Nanoleaf device that you have? Were you able to get this connected to Google Home before? What's the Google Home app version that you're using?

Please check if you can link your Nanoleaf lights using these steps: open the app > Choose Settings > Tap on Works with Google > Look for Nanoleaf > Sign in and follow the steps to connect your devices. Ask your Google Home to "sync the devices" and check if you can now control Nanoleaf.

Keep me posted.

Best,
Lovely

I have the nanoleaf essentials that only connects to matter. I already synced the account. I was able to see the device with matter. I need Alexa devices. I’m using the public preview of the iOS app.

Hey kcroyaljosh,

To confirm, do you have a Google Home/Nest device? Please note that to control a Matter-enabled device with the Google Home app or Google Assistant, you need a Google device that acts as a hub for Matter. Visit this link to know more.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Muddi
