Add a Matter device to Alexa. Check your device generation, platform requirements, network and firmware before you start.
Before you begin
- Compatible Echo/eero controller
- TBR for Thread
- Supported Alexa device category
Confirm the latest app screens with the manufacturer. Menu labels can change. Do not enter a Matter QR or setup code on this site.
Pairing steps
- Check the exact generation in the official inventory.
- Open the current Alexa Matter onboarding flow.
- Use a current sharing code when another platform already owns the device.
- Complete discovery on the same reachable local network.
- Test app control and voice commands separately.

Confirm it worked
- Device appears in intended Alexa home
- Permitted basic command works
Test the particular function you need. A device appearing in the app does not prove that advanced features, automations or remote control are available.
If pairing fails
- A voice unlock policy is distinct from hardware lock compatibility.
