Assuming that IKEA zigbee lamps could be integrated, why not also integrate those small IKEA zigbee buttons/switches (example: on/off switch TRADFRI) and also those remote controls (Example: IKEA STYRBAR).

It’s possible? Is that your intention?
Or do you think it could compete with your wireless switches?
I think they have different uses.

Hello Wilson,

Indeed, ZigBee 3.0 compatible lamps can be managed by our Gateway, and so via the Home + Control app

We’re not a light bulb manufacturer, so this feature is interesting for us. But integrating Z3.0 switches from other brands would mean providing a free application to manage our direct competitors’ devices … I doubt the marketing would find it interesting for us 😀

I understand your concern. However, these are buttons and sensors, with a different format from yours, for which you do not have a similar offer.

I’m sad that we can’t integrate other switches and motion sensors. Obviously, to place on a wall, on a headboard, or in another similar type of application, I prefer to use Legrand.. But there are certain applications for which yours are too large (with the normal wall format), and these (IKEA/LIDL/etc) are smaller, minuscule, serve other purposes very well. You don’t have a similar offer.

Hello Wilson,

I forwarded your message to the marketing. It’s not impossible that your usecase could give them ideas for future devices
