HomeKit is Apple’s smart-home platform for centrally controlling connected devices such as lights, heating, sockets and more via the Home app on iOS, iPadOS, macOS and Apple Watch. For remote access, you need a control hub – HomePod, Apple TV or an iPad.
A key advantage: HomeKit supports Matter functionality. This open standard greatly expands cross-brand compatibility, so more devices work together reliably.
Shelly offers a wide range of smart switches, sockets and modules that integrate with Apple HomeKit via Matter. You’ll find a current list of Matter‑certified Shelly devices on Shelly’s website. This lets you integrate lighting, appliances and outdoor installations into the Apple ecosystem to control your electrical devices. Let’s look at popular options that support Apple HomeKit.
The compact Shelly 1 Gen4 – like all Gen4 and many Gen3 Shelly devices – is Matter‑certified. It also supports Wi‑Fi, Zigbee and Bluetooth. Installed behind a wall switch or in a junction box, it makes almost any electrical device or light HomeKit‑ready via Matter functionality. This way, Apple users connect directly to smart‑home comfort.
Beyond classic on/off switching, Shelly 1PM Gen4 includes power metering so you can view live consumption in the Shelly Smart Control app. The device pairs with your Apple control hub via Matter. Today, Matter exposes the basic power‑metering capability; the Shelly app adds deeper energy‑saving features. Many metrics Shelly devices collect can drive scenes and automations. Devices connected through 1PM can also be controlled from an Apple device running iOS.
Thanks to its very small form factor, Shelly 1 Mini Gen4 fits into tight wall boxes and it is ideal for older installations. This Wi‑Fi switch makes lighting or electrical installations smart and integrates with HomeKit via Matter.
Shelly 1PM Mini Gen4 combines compact size with power metering. Even space‑constrained installations are easily integrated into the iOS smart home for switching and monitoring. Matter functionality enables automatic discovery in Apple Home.
Shelly 1L Gen3 is designed for homes without a neutral wire, making it perfect for retrofits in older buildings. It’s ideal for light circuits without neutral that you want to control intelligently with Apple HomeKit. Via Matter, it integrates cleanly into your iOS smart‑home setup.
With two independent channels, Shelly 2L Gen3 is versatile, for two lighting circuits or blinds, for example. Like 1L Gen3, it joins Apple HomeKit through Matter.
This third‑generation smart plug switches and measures connected devices. As a Wi‑Fi plug with Matter support, it makes mobile appliances HomeKit‑ready, so you can switch lights on or cut power completely to save energy.
Outdoors, Shelly devices also support Apple HomeKit. Purpose‑built for outdoor use, Shelly Outdoor Plug S offers a weather‑resistant way to control garden lighting, pumps or other devices. It also measures consumption. Thanks to Matter, it’s compatible with your Apple control hub, so you can integrate outdoor areas into your iOS smart home.

If you use a Matter-enabled device from Shelly – such as the Plug S Gen3 – integration is very easy. Some Shelly devices are Apple HomeKit-compatible by default, while others gain this functionality through a firmware update:
• Add the device in the Shelly Smart Control app • Update firmware if prompted • In the device settings, select “Matter” and display the QR/setup code (or read it from the device label) • Open Apple Home, tap “+” and choose “Add Accessory” • Scan the QR code or enter the setup code • Select a room, confirm the name/function, and finish installation
Matter is an open smart-home standard co-developed by Apple, Google, Amazon, Samsung and others. Its goal is to make devices from different brands work together. For Apple HomeKit, that means you’re no longer limited to HomeKit-specific devices. Setup is straightforward, and the list of compatible products keeps growing. Another plus: Matter devices communicate locally on your network for fast response and strong data privacy.
With Shelly you can control your smart home via HomeKit or via the Shelly Smart Control app. Today, HomeKit (via Matter) is still limited for complex, multi‑device setups. Of course, this may change, but that’s the current state.
If you prefer to stay in the Apple world, HomeKit is a valid choice. If you want the full potential of your smart home, the Shelly app offers more granular energy insights, scenes and automations.
You’ll need an iPhone (iOS) or iPad (iPadOS) with the Home app, and a HomePod, Apple TV or iPad as a control hub for automations or remote access.
iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Mac, and HomePod/Apple TV, which can also act as the home control hub for automations and remote access.
Yes. Thanks to Matter support, Shelly devices integrate seamlessly and can be controlled via the Home app or Siri.
