In todays video we are having a little look at Switchbots latest Smart Home Hub (The Hub 2). This new hub offers some great upgrades over the original and also offers Matter Support. In this video I run through the Matter Process for HomeKit setup and also a quick glance at how it works (or doesn't) in Home Assistant.
If you're interested in picking up this latest hub you can grab one directly from Switchbot over at : bit.ly/3GbWJZv
For a limited time you can also save 15% on a Hub 2 order using code : XM15HUB2 at checkout.
