What's the difference between Matter smart plugs and regular Wi-Fi smart plugs?
Reviewer consensus
Matter-certified plugs (like the Kasa KP125M and Tapo P125M/P210M) can be added to Apple Home, Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings simultaneously and keep working on your local network if cloud service goes down. Non-Matter plugs like the Kasa EP40 outdoor and Amazon Smart Plug are tied to their own app and a smaller list of voice assistants.
