Matter 1.4.2: release date, what it added and certified devices

What Matter 1.4.2 added

Each line rests on the CSA's announcement, CSA: Matter 1.4.2, which we re-read on November 12, 2026; its words are quoted under each line.

• Setup over Wi-Fi alone, so a device does not need a Bluetooth radio just to be added.CSA: "Matter 1.4.2 introduces support for Wi-Fi-only commissioning using Wi-Fi Unsynchronized Service Discovery (USD)." … "This update enables devices to be onboarded to Matter ecosystems over Wi-Fi without requiring Bluetooth Low Energy (LE) radios."
• Vendor ID verification: controllers can check that the platforms installed on a device are who they say they are.CSA: "Matter Controllers can now cryptographically verify that the Admins installed on a device are genuinely from the vendors they claim."
• Certificate revocation lists, so platforms can flag devices whose attestation certificates were revoked.CSA: "Using Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), Matter now supports standard mechanisms for revoking unused or compromised Device Attestation Certificates."
• Certifiable scenes.CSA: "Matter 1.4.2 makes scene support certifiable"
• Standard robot vacuum behavior when commands arrive one after another.CSA: "Matter 1.4.2 standardizes expected behavior, particularly around sequential commands."
• Thread border routers built into certified routers and access points must support at least 150 devices and be certified for Thread 1.4.CSA: "Thread Border Routers included in NIMs must support at least 150 devices and be certified for Thread 1.4."
• "Quieter Reporting" for more features, so devices send fewer unneeded updates.CSA: "Matter 1.4.2 extends “Quieter Reporting,”"
• It stays backward compatible with earlier Matter releases.CSA: "while Matter 1.4.2 maintains full backward compatibility"

The CSA on what happens next: "while Matter 1.4.2 maintains full backward compatibility" … "many of its enhancements require coordinated support between device manufacturers and ecosystem platforms" A device gains them only if its maker certifies firmware on Matter 1.4.2 or later, and the platform you use supports them too.
