| Google Home | Adapter needed | Google Nest Hub (2nd generation) has no Zigbee radio — this device needs a Zigbee bridge that exposes it to Matter (its own brand's hub, or a Zigbee2MQTT/Home Assistant setup bridging into Matter). |
| Bosch Smart Home | Not compatible | Bosch Smart Home Controller II's Zigbee radio only pairs Bosch devices, so this Aqara device cannot join it directly. |
| IKEA Home smart | Not compatible | IKEA DIRIGERA's Zigbee radio only pairs IKEA devices, so this Aqara device cannot join it directly. |
| Philips Hue | Not compatible | Philips Hue Bridge's Zigbee radio only pairs Philips Hue devices, so this Aqara device cannot join it directly. |
| Ring / Amazon Alexa | Not compatible | Aqara Water leak sensor (SJCGQ11LM) and Ring Alarm Pro share no protocol — there is no direct or bridged pairing path. |
Verdicts are derived from certification records, open-source driver support, and each hub's documented radios — see the methodology for the rules. “Adapter needed” means a border router, bridge, or add-on radio is required.
