We are at the beginning of the tech busy season and I for one am pretty excited. Smart home manufacturers have been busy pushing out Matter updates and entirely new devices and something feels fresh about it all. In this episode, we talk about a couple of Matter updates and a new product from SwitchBot, look forward to some Apple Home-related releases at IFA, and Aqara is up to their usual product drop shenanigans with their first international lighting product. We round out today’s episode with my uncommon, but miserably irritating experience with some Matter devices.
