Quick answers

Is the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip Matter certified?
Yes. MatterCatalog matches it to CSA Matter certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24, certified Mar 5, 2025.
Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip work with Apple Home or HomeKit?
Yes. The maker’s own site names Apple Home, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24). Apple says an iPhone using iOS 18 or later can add Matter accessories to the Home app without a home hub. Apple’s Matter page lists outlets among the accessory types the Home app supports.

Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip work with Google Home?
Yes. The maker’s own site names Google Home, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24). Google says you need a Matter-enabled hub device set up on your home wireless network before you can add Matter devices to Google Home. Google’s supported-device-types page lists the On/Off Plug-in Unit type.

Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip work with Alexa?
Yes. The maker’s own site names Alexa, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24). Alexa needs a Matter-compatible Echo; Amazon says its Echo devices support “a subset of Matter 1.5 and lower device types”, so check that yours does.

Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip work with Samsung SmartThings?
Yes. The maker’s own site names SmartThings, and it is Matter certified (certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24). SmartThings adds Matter devices through the SmartThings app and a Matter controller.

Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip work with Home Assistant?
Likely. It is Matter certified (certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24), so any Matter controller whose app supports its device type can add it. The maker hasn’t named Home Assistant on a page we hold. Home Assistant says: “Adding a new Matter device only works in the Home Assistant Companion app.”

Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip use Thread or Wi-Fi?
Wi-Fi. Its catalog record lists Wi-Fi, so it joins your Wi-Fi network and does not need a Thread border router. You still need your platform’s Matter controller.
Does the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip need a hub or a Thread border router?
No hub of its own and no Thread border router: it joins your Wi-Fi network. You still need your platform’s Matter controller (a smart speaker, display, streaming box or hub), though Apple says an iPhone using iOS 18 or later can add Matter accessories without a home hub.
When was the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip Matter certified?
The CSA certified it on Mar 5, 2025 (certificate CSA25115MAT45159-24). That is its certification date, not a retail release date, which MatterCatalog does not state.
Where can I buy the TP-Link Tapo P316M Matter Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip?
MatterCatalog has verified store links for it at Amazon and B&H Photo-Video-Audio. Check the current price, model and pack size at the store.
