We’re thrilled to announce the release of eWeLink App V5.8, packed with enhancements to improve your smart home experience. Let’s dive into what’s new:
Support Matter Occupancy Sensor and Generic Switch
The latest version of the eWeLink app, V5.8, now supports more device types, including the Matter Occupancy Sensor and Matter Generic Switch. These additions broaden the range of devices that can be seamlessly integrated into your smart home setup, providing more options for automation and control.
Optimized Android Widget Design
For our Android users, we’ve optimized the widget design, focusing on improved aesthetics and functionality. Notable updates include:
- Consistent width and height for 2×2 widgets: For phones running Android 12 and above, the 2×2 widget (including “Device Control 2×2”, “Sensor View 2×2”, and “Manual Scene 2×2”) now features a consistent width and height.
- Streamlined device selection process for 4×2 widgets: When re-selecting a device for the 4×2 widget, the app will switch to the current home associated with the widget and default to the device previously added.
New Voice Platform Support - Sber!
We’re excited to introduce support for the Sber voice platform! You can now link Sber Salute through the eWeLink Support page, enabling seamless voice control of your smart devices.
With these updates, the eWeLink app continues to evolve, offering enhanced functionality and improved user experience. The expanded Matter support enhances interoperability with a wider range of smart devices, while the refined widget design offers more intuitive control at your fingertips. The addition of Sber voice control provides another convenient way to manage your smart home.
eWeLink App version 5.8 has been submitted to the Google Play Store and it will be accessible gradually. iOS users can anticipate the release by the end of July. Stay tuned for an elevated smart living experience!
