Motionblinds works with Google Home
Google Home is Google’s smart home platform for managing lighting, blinds, thermostats, sensors, and other connected devices. Accessed through the Google Home app and powered by Google Assistant, it enables voice control, smart routines, and Matter support for fast and secure local control. Google Home helps automate everyday tasks and brings your smart devices together in one simple interface.
Matter and Thread motors
Eve Motionblinds motors with built‑in Matter and Thread connect directly to Google Home through Thread border routers such as the Google Nest Hub and Google TV Streamer. No Motionblinds bridge is required. Google Home communicates over the Thread network, giving you fast, local, and reliable control of your smart blinds.
Matter and Wi‑Fi bridges
Motionblinds motors using Bluetooth or 433MHz can connect to Google Home through Motionblinds Matter Bridges. Setup is quick with QR‑code scanning and requires no account or registration. The bridges work fully offline, so your blinds stay responsive even without an internet connection. The Motionblinds app makes onboarding simple and dependable.
Cloud connection and Wi‑Fi bridges
Motionblinds motors with built‑in 433MHz technology can connect to Motionblinds Wi‑Fi bridges (CMD-01 and CM-20) for Google Home control. After linking Motionblinds in the Google Home app, your blinds can be managed through a secure cloud‑to‑cloud integration. This provides an easy option for homes with existing Motionblinds motors.
