SwitchBot’s robot hand to unlock your door gets a big upgrade

The SwitchBot Lock Pro is a smart retrofit door lock that can work with Matter.

The new lock can be purchased in a bundle that adds a keypad with a fingerprint reader for unlocking and the new SwitchBot Hub Mini Matter Enabled. Developed by Apple, Amazon, Google, and Samsung (and others), Matter is an open-sourced, IP-based connectivity software layer for smart home devices. These include lighting, plugs and switches, thermostats, locks, security and environment sensors, refrigerators, dishwashers, smoke alarms, air quality monitors, and more.
