Buyer's guide

Matter blinds: Wi-Fi or Thread?

Most Matter shades use Thread, which runs for months on a battery but needs a Thread border router (a HomePod mini, Apple TV, recent Nest Hub, or some Echo models). Wi-Fi shades need no border router but drain batteries faster.

Retrofit motor or complete shade?

Complete shades come made to measure. Retrofit motors and tilt kits automate shades or blinds you already own.

Will they work with my system?

Matter shades work with Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings, and Home Assistant.
