Samsung has expanded its SmartThings platform to support Ikea's 2026 range of affordable smart home devices that use the Matter standard. Previously, users needed both Ikea's Dirigera hub and a SmartThings hub, but now only a compatible SmartThings hub is required to control around 25 Ikea devices, including smart plugs, sensors, and bulbs. This change simplifies setup and reduces costs for users already invested in SmartThings, though a dedicated hub like Samsung's Aeotec is still necessary. Ikea's devices also remain compatible with other Matter hubs from Apple, Amazon, and Google, offering budget-friendly smart home options for many users.
