Ecosystem compatibility
| Platform | Works? | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Matter | Yes, over Ethernet | The US page says Matter works via the Hue Bridge. CSA lists the 'Hue Bridge Matter Platform' (Signify, Matter 1.4.2, January 2026), a software component on 'Hue Bridge version 3' that links to the Bridge Pro and bridges Ethernet and Zigbee. It names no US product code.[1],[3] Other Matter smart home hubs |
| Apple Home | Yes | Apple Home is listed on Philips' US page; Matter also works through the bridge.[1] |
| Google Home | Yes | Google Assistant / Google Home is listed on Philips' US page; Matter also works through the bridge.[1] |
| Amazon Alexa | Yes | Amazon Alexa is listed on Philips' US page; Matter also works through the bridge.[1] |
| SmartThings | Yes | Samsung SmartThings is listed on Philips' US page.[1] |
| Home Assistant | Via Matter | Through Home Assistant's Matter integration, which names the Philips Hue Bridge as a Matter bridge. Home Assistant's Hue integration page names only V1 and V2 bridges, not the Pro, so native support isn't confirmed.[3],[4] |
“Via Matter” means you add it with that platform's Matter controller instead of a brand skill or app. “Unconfirmed” means we couldn't find an official source either way. How we verify.

Before you buy
- Philips gives separate limits of 150 lights and 50 accessories rather than one total.
- Home Assistant support comes through Matter, because its Hue integration page does not name the Pro.
- Philips does not list Thread for the Bridge Pro, so don't count on it as a Thread border router.
