Matter thermostats compared.
Including which Nest thermostats work with Matter.

Only two Nest thermostats are: the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and Nest Thermostat (2020). You can look at the display, the base, or in the Nest app to find out which Nest thermostat you have, Google says; our guide to which Nest thermostats work with Matter shows each generation’s screen, ring and base.

Only the oldest ones. Google says of the Nest Learning Thermostat (1st gen, 2011) and (2nd gen, 2012; Europe version 2014): “Your thermostat will no longer connect to or work in the Google Nest app or Google Home app starting on October 25, 2025.” They get no software or security updates, but you can still control them on the device and their pre-set schedules keep working. The newer Nest thermostats are not affected.

Matter does not change the wiring a thermostat needs, so start with your system. Most US homes have 24 V HVAC wiring, and a 24 V model replaces a 24 V thermostat on the same wires; electric baseboard heat uses line voltage (120–240 V), which needs a line-voltage model such as the Meross MTS215MA US. Each pick lists its maker’s wiring requirements. If you are unsure what you have, or the job means working on mains wiring, use a licensed electrician or HVAC installer.

Yes, the two current models are. The CSA certification ledger lists the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen), first certified Jun 23, 2024 and most recently for software 2.4 on Sep 23, 2026, and the Nest Thermostat (2020), first certified Nov 22, 2022 and most recently for software 2.2 on Jul 18, 2025. It lists no other Google thermostat, so the Nest Thermostat E and the Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd gen or earlier) are not Matter certified.

Matter lets you control a Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) or Nest Thermostat (2020) from Apple Home, Alexa or another Matter app as well as Google Home: you share it from the Google Home app, then add it in the other app. It does not replace Google Home: the thermostat must be set up there first, each other app needs its own Matter hub, only one platform controls it at a given moment, and Google’s pages do not name SmartThings or say which thermostat controls each app shows.

Google lists the thermostat among the Matter device types Google Home supports, so any of the 15 CSA-certified thermostats we list can be added with a Google Home Matter hub; pick by your heating system and wiring first. Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and Nest Thermostat (2020) are Google’s own and set up directly in Google Home. Other certified wall thermostats for heating and cooling: Honeywell Home FocusPRO S200 Smart Thermostat (TH2110WF4008), Honeywell Home X2S (RTH2SMC/N), LUX TQ1 Smart Thermostat, Lux TQX Smart Thermostat, Meross MTS300MA, Mysa Smart Thermostat for Central HVAC and Resideo FocusPro S200 / X2S Smart Thermostat. We compare them from maker documentation; we have not tested them hands-on.

A Matter thermostat is a smart thermostat that a Matter platform, such as Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa or SmartThings, can add and control directly. Matter does not change the wiring it needs: most US homes need a 24 V HVAC model, while electric baseboard heat needs a line-voltage model.

Not the 5 models in this guide: each one’s catalog record lists Wi-Fi, not Thread, so it joins your home Wi-Fi and needs no Thread border router. You still need your platform’s Matter controller, such as a supported speaker, display or hub.

Not necessarily. “Matter compatible” or “works with Matter” in a store title is the seller’s claim; a CSA certificate is the record of certification. MatterCatalog lists 18 thermostats with a verified US store link: 15 are CSA Matter certified, plus 1 (Aqara Thermostat Hub W200) whose CSA record we couldn’t match to the exact retail model; 2 have no CSA certificate on file. Each product page shows its certification status.

No. Matter describes smart-home communication, not electrical or heating-system compatibility. Match supply voltage, heating and cooling stages, control type, power requirements and region first. Use the exact manufacturer compatibility checker and have an HVAC professional or electrician confirm the fit.

A 24 V HVAC thermostat signals compatible heating and cooling equipment. A line-voltage thermostat such as Meross MTS215MA US controls supported 120–240 V electric-heating loads. They are not interchangeable. A water-heating control or radiator valve is another distinct product.

No single rule covers every model. Meross MTS300 needs a suitable C-wire power arrangement or compatible adapter. Nest requirements depend on the model and system; the 4th-gen Learning thermostat may work without a C wire, but some installations need one or a Nest Power Connector. Check the manufacturer requirements rather than guessing from wire colors.

Not always. Meross MTS300 requires the Meross app for initial HVAC configuration. Google’s April 2026 version 2.4 update adds on-device setup to the 4th-gen Nest Learning Thermostat. Firmware, remote access and advanced features still have model-specific requirements.

No. Available controls and accessories vary by firmware and platform. Google’s 4th-gen version 2.4 adds Matter bridging for thermostat sensors, but that does not establish support in every app. Manufacturer-app schedules, reports and learning features are separate from the basic controls a platform exposes.

No. Eve Thermo is a radiator valve. Eve Thermostat includes distinct regional wall-control products; the European model is for compatible water-based underfloor heating, while the North American product has separate requirements. Check the exact regional model, not just the Eve name.

MatterCatalog lists 2 Google Nest thermostats with a verified US store link, and both are CSA Matter certified: Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and Nest Thermostat (2020). Each lists Wi-Fi, not Thread, so it joins your home Wi-Fi network.

We can’t confirm it: MatterCatalog has no ecobee thermostat on file, and no ecobee model appears in the CSA Matter certification data we track. Check ecobee’s own support pages for its current Matter status. The CSA Matter certified thermostats we list with a US store link include Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and Nest Thermostat (2020).

Not among the thermostats sold in the US that MatterCatalog lists: of the 18 with a verified US store link, 17 record Wi-Fi as their Matter network and 1 states none; none records Thread. The catalog does hold 24 CSA-certified Matter-over-Thread thermostats, including radiator thermostats, with no verified US store link: ALRE-IT KTRRUs410.B86, Aqara Floor Heating Thermostat W500, Aqara Radiator Thermostat W600, Bosch Radiator Thermostat II [+M], Bosch Radiator Thermostat II [+M] PRO, CAME S.p.A. TH/ONE THREAD WALL CHRONOTERMOSTAT BATT., Computime Smart Thermostat, Eurotronic Comet, Eve Thermo, Eve Thermostat, Eve Thermostat (20ECT1701), geo SeeZero Thermostat, habi Smart TRV, habi Wireless Room Thermostat, Hama Smart radiator thermostat (00176674/00176682), IKEA LILJEBAGGE radiator thermostat (E2497), Meross MTS155 (E004B000), Meross MTS220B (E005B000), Meross Smart Thermostat, Siterwell Radiator thermostats, tado° Smart Radiator Thermostat X, tado° Smart Thermostat X, tado° Smart Thermostat X UFH (106912) and Tuya Smart TRV (TRV60-Matter). A Thread thermostat needs a Thread border router as well as your platform’s Matter controller.

MatterCatalog lists 18 thermostats with a verified US store link; 15 are CSA Matter certified: Boldr Klima Smart Thermostat, Aluminum Silver; Boldr Klima Smart Thermostat, Graphite Grey; Honeywell Home FocusPRO S200 Smart Thermostat (TH2110WF4008); Honeywell Home X2S (RTH2SMC/N); Laticrete STRATA_HEAT Smart LCD Thermostat 0804-0404-TW; Lennox S40 Smart Thermostat; LUX TQ1 Smart Thermostat; Lux TQX Smart Thermostat; Meross MTS300MA; Mysa Smart Thermostat for Central HVAC; Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen); Nest Thermostat (2020); Resideo FocusPro S200 / X2S Smart Thermostat; Warmup 7iE Smart Matter WiFi Thermostat and Zemismart IR Thermostat. 1 more has a CSA record that we could not match to the exact retail model.

Yes, the two Matter models do: the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and the Nest Thermostat (2020). Share the thermostat from the Google Home app with a pairing or QR code, then add it in Apple Home. Google says the thermostat must first be set up with Google Home, and that each app needs its own Matter hub.

Yes. Google’s store page says the Nest Thermostat (2020) works with Alexa voice control, which needs a compatible device. Both Nest Matter models can also be shared from the Google Home app to another Matter app such as Alexa; Google says that app then needs its own Matter hub.

Google says the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) works with or without a C wire, and under 1% of homes need one or a Nest Power Connector. The Nest Thermostat (2020) needs one, or a Nest Power Connector, on some systems, such as heating-only, cooling-only, zoned and heat pump systems. The Lux TQ1 and TQX need a C wire or a LUX Power Bridge (included with the TQX). The Meross MTS300MA needs a C wire or a compatible power arrangement, Mysa for Central HVAC needs a C wire (an adapter is sold separately), and the Honeywell Home X2S needs a C wire.

There is no single best one: the right model depends on your heating system, not the Matter badge. Match your heating system first. For 24 V HVAC: Meross MTS300MA, Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen), Nest Thermostat (2020) and Honeywell Home X2S (RTH2SMC/N). For 120–240 V electric heat: Meross MTS215MA US. We compare them from maker documentation; we have not tested them hands-on.

Google says you can tell from the display, the base, or the Nest app. For example, the Nest Thermostat (2020) has a mirrored screen and the Nest Thermostat E a translucent white screen. Only the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and the Nest Thermostat (2020) support Matter.

Yes. Google’s specifications list a built-in rechargeable lithium battery for the Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen) and two AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries for the Nest Thermostat (2020).

The Nest Learning Thermostat (4th gen). Google’s store page calls it “the latest thermostat” and says you can control it from the Google Home app or another Matter app because it is Matter-certified; its CSA certificate is CSA24363MAT43542-24, certified Jun 23, 2024.

No Matter is listed for it. Google’s software update history shows no Matter update for the Nest Learning Thermostat (3rd gen) or earlier, and the CSA data we track has no certificate for them. The 4th gen and the Nest Thermostat (2020) are the Nest models with Matter.

No Matter is listed for it. Google’s software history shows no Matter update for the Nest Thermostat E, and the CSA data we track has no certificate for it. Google says the Nest Thermostat E has a translucent white screen, which tells it apart from the Nest Thermostat (2020) and its mirrored screen.

Not one under Apple’s own name. Apple’s Home Collection, announced October 13, 2026, includes two Matter thermostats for the US and Canada: the LG Smart Thermostat and the Schneider Home Smart Thermostat. Apple says “Both thermostats and temperature and humidity sensors are Matter compatible” and that “Every device supports Thread, helping it maintain connectivity even if a Wi-Fi connection drops.” It says the collection will be available starting in December. Until then, the Matter thermostats on sale whose makers name Apple Home are Honeywell Home X2S (RTH2SMC/N), Meross MTS300MA, Warmup 7iE Smart Matter WiFi Thermostat, Zemismart IR Thermostat and Aqara Thermostat Hub W200.

Among the thermostats sold in the US that we list, the makers’ own pages name all three for the Honeywell Home X2S (RTH2SMC/N), Warmup 7iE Smart Matter WiFi Thermostat, Zemismart IR Thermostat and Aqara Thermostat Hub W200. The two Nest models work in Apple Home and Alexa too: share them from the Google Home app to the other app, which needs its own Matter hub, Google says.
