Latest Google Home app does not show Matter Sensor as trigger

Patrick93 — Thu, 18 May 2023 20:35:02 GMT

I finally have the latest version of Google Home and wanted to finally set up my sensor (Eve Motion) as a trigger.

Unfortunately, the sensor is still not shown to me as a trigger. The only triggers I see are my Chromecast Ultra, my eve Motion outlet, and my two Nest Audios.
According to the Google documentation it should work: https://support.google.com/assistant/answer/7672035

Eve Motion is Matter and Thread capable. I want to use the trigger to activate an Eve energy (socket) and turn on a lamp.

I use the Google Pixel 6a for setup and also have a Nest Wifi Pro.

Have you tried using a script?

Thanks for the feedback. I have managed it in the meantime with a script.
