Wow! Easy fit low cost HomeKit door or Window sensor.
These are just so simple and brilliant itâs incredible.Using with Apple HomeKit app.Easy to install, self adhesive stickers or screws Set up is about 5 mins per unit and works like a dream.Download the Apple HomeKit App, apply where you want it either on a door or window, or even a Garage Roller or normal up and over door. When the sensors are split you get a notification to with iPhone, iPad Apple Watch or even the iOS iPod I would think too.Iâve got one on the back door so if itâs opened during the night I have 2 bedside light that come on and the Apple HomePod mini comes on playing an alarm sound.So simple and so quick. Brilliant

Rock solid and dependable
Recently fitted and joined my thread network when the firmware was updated. The (free) Eve app is excellent. I was a little dubious about just sticking the sensor on the door, but it works perfectly as there is little weight to the product.It’s only a sensor, so you can decide what you want it to do. I can get a notification on my phone for open and close events. I can set times when I wish to receive those notifications, such as during the day when no-one should be home. It could be made to trigger other events, such as turn on a hall lamp when you enter.I only have one on the entrance to my apartment and It triggers pretty much instantly. That gives me peace of mind that all is well. I’ll add motion sensors when Eve launch the thread versions.The possibilities multiply when you add further products.

Very Good, but why not use standard batteries?
Very good sensor and works great in my Homekit ecosystem. Dropped a star though as the batteries are a strange half-size AA, which are very hard to find. Had 3 of these for about 7 months – one battery was dead after 3 months and another just died last week.Hopefully the next generation of these use AA, AAA or even CR2032 batteries which are more widely available to buy!

Very easy to set up
Set up in seconds. So far so good. Replacing a Meross sensor which was cheaper but rubbish. Original Meross sensor and 2 replacements failed very quickly. Arrived earlier than expected too.

Too complicated, lacking multi os integration.
Purchased 3 of these new matter compatible devices, it appeared to tick all the boxes with privacy and google home integration and it looked much nicer than any others I had seen.However I failed at the first step after opening the box, I’m an iphone user (with google home, smart things, Smartlife app’s) and all my home devices integrated with google and using nest mini’s and hub max, but after hours and hours of trying different permutations I realised there was no way to step this up without having to fork out more money to purchase either more apple or android devices to make it work. It’s a shame really, as I expected to set this up via Eve app and then add to google home like other devices, but no joy. Have returned back to Amazon in a hope that one day they will make it easier.

Does what it says on the tin!
As a tenant, I’ve had my fair share of landlords who like to turn up anannounced or let themselves in when I am out, this door/window sensor provides me with an extra layer of comfort knowing when my front door has been opened or closed whilst I am not in.It’s a small device that fits perfectly on the door and is super easy to set up and connect to my iPhone and Apple HomeKit system.

Reliable door sensor for Apple Home with option to upgrade to Matter
The door sensor is very reliable and connects to a home hub through Thread (which is supposedly energy efficient). I bought the old version which was marketed for only Apple HomeKit. After adding it to the Eve app, it offered me an option to update the device to support Matter. This is nice as the Matter version cost about £10 more when I purchased it. Matter opens the device up to other smart home systems (e.g. Alexa and Google Home). All in all a great purchase with an option to swap smart home system in the future, and up to this point it has never missed another door events.

I bought EVE Window & Door in December 2023. Today is December 2024. IT WORKS LIKE A CHARM. I have had no problems at all since the purchase. I changed the battery for the first time in November 2024, so it should last at least a year.The EVE application also works. It is interesting to see how many times a day and for how long doors are opened or closed or how long family members have been away from home. I also have peace of mind during the holidays.I only had once problem with connection, but a quick reset fixed it. Just once.I use the Apple ecosystem and AppleTV is the hub.

Eve knows how to make great products, and great smart home products they are. I can’t recommend this company and their products enough. Every smart home category Eve enters they knock it out of the park. Plus! this Door Sensor Gen works with Matter, so it’s super easy to upgrade with a lower price 😀

Ces capteurs ont bien fonctionné jusquâà leur mise à jour pour passer à Matter/Thread.Il semble que le nouveau firmware ne soit pas au point…la mise à jour a rendu le capteur inopérant.Evidemment le gadget nâétait plus sous garantie, expérience très décevante.

Der Eve Door & Window ist ein kompakter und zuverlässiger Kontaktsensor, der optimal in Apples HomeKit-Umgebung integriert werden kann. Er überwacht Türen, Fenster oder sogar Schränke und bietet clevere Funktionen, um das Smart Home noch komfortabler und energieeffizienter zu gestalten. Hier meine Eindrücke nach einigen Wochen der Nutzung:Design und VerarbeitungDer Sensor besteht aus zwei Teilen â dem Hauptsensor und dem Magnetkontakt. Beide Elemente sind klein, unauffällig und lassen sich dank des mitgelieferten Montagematerials (Klebepads/Schrauben) leicht und sicher anbringen. Das minimalistische Weià fügt sich in jede Wohnumgebung ein und stört das Gesamtbild nicht.Installation und Einbindung in Apple HomeDie Einrichtung geht zügig vonstatten: Einfach den Sensor gemäà Anleitung an Tür oder Fenster befestigen und in der Eve-App bzw. Apple Home-App den angezeigten Anweisungen folgen. Das Scannen des HomeKit-Codes aktiviert den Sensor in wenigen Sekunden.Dank Thread-Unterstützung (und zusätzlicher Bluetooth-Verbindung) bietet Eve Door & Window eine besonders stabile und reaktionsschnelle Anbindung im Apple-Ãkosystem. Wer bereits einen Thread-fähigen Border-Router (z. B. HomePod mini oder Apple TV 4K neuere Generation) besitzt, profitiert sofort von kurzer Reaktionszeit und hoher Zuverlässigkeit.Funktionen und VorteileBenachrichtigungen: In der Home-App lassen sich Mitteilungen konfigurieren. Man erhält eine Benachrichtigung, sobald die Tür oder das Fenster geöffnet bzw. geschlossen wird. Das ist besonders praktisch, wenn man auÃer Haus ist oder gewisse Bereiche überwachen möchte (z. B. Kinderzimmer, Balkontüren).Automationen: Mit Eve Door & Window kann man die Smart-Home-Automatisierungen erweitern. Beispielsweise lässt sich automatisch das Licht einschalten, sobald man die Tür öffnet, oder die Heizung in bestimmten Räumen herunterregeln, wenn ein Fenster offensteht.Energieersparnis: Die Integration in Heizungsautomationen hilft beim Sparen von Heizkosten. Wenn ein Fenster geöffnet wird, kann die Heizung automatisch heruntergeregelt werden â ideal für ein ökologisch bewusstes Smart Home.Sicherheitsaspekt: Der Sensor kann auch als Teil eines Sicherheitskonzepts dienen, da eine Push-Nachricht eine mögliche ungewollte Ãffnung der Tür signalisiert.BatterieleistungEve Door & Window läuft über eine auswechselbare Knopfzelle (CR2450). Die Batterielaufzeit hängt vom Nutzungsverhalten ab, ist aber in der Regel recht lang. Im Schnitt muss man nur alle 6â12 Monate mit einem Austausch rechnen. Bei leerer Batterie erinnert einen die App rechtzeitig daran.Datenschutz und PrivatsphäreEve setzt konsequent auf datenschutzfreundliche Lösungen ohne Cloud-Zwang. Die Daten werden lokal in Apples HomeKit-System verarbeitet, was für zusätzliche Sicherheit und Privatsphäre sorgt.Preis-Leistungs-VerhältnisEve Door & Window ist nicht der preiswerteste Kontaktsensor auf dem Markt, doch seine hochwertige Verarbeitung, die verlässliche Funktion sowie die nahtlose Apple-Integration rechtfertigen den Preis. Wer auf Apple HomeKit setzt und ein solides, langlebiges Produkt sucht, wird hier fündig.FazitDer Eve Door & Window ist ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil für jedes Apple-basiertes Smart Home, wenn es um Tür- und Fensterüberwachung, Energieersparnis und komfortable Automationen geht. Er punktet mit leichtem Einbau, zuverlässiger Erkennung und nahtloser HomeKit-Einbindung.Empfehlung: Ideal für alle, die ein hochwertiges Apple-HomeKit-Gerät zur Ãberwachung von Türen und Fenstern suchen und gleichzeitig den Energieverbrauch im Blick behalten möchten.

buon sensore apertura porta ti manda notifiche nella Homekit ogni volta che si apre, utile come sistema di sicurezza passivo consiglio. Montaggio facile ma bisogna ingegnarsi se gli spessori non bastano per sistemare i sensori.
