AustriaChecked 11 November 2026

Loxone is an Austrian smart building company whose system is built around the Miniserver, a central controller that runs lighting, shading, ventilation, energy, music, alarms and more. The Loxone App controls the installation, and Loxone Config is the software used to program it.

Where Loxone fits in a smart home

Loxone is a self-contained system rather than a set of cloud-connected gadgets. Devices attach to the Miniserver over its own wired Tree and Link buses or wireless Air, and the Miniserver connects to the home network over LAN. The App Store listing recommends a certified Loxone Partner for installation and configuration, including external access.

That suits new builds and renovations where one programmable system is wanted for the whole building. It is weaker for pairing with other ecosystems: Apple Home is documented, but Loxone calls its Matter support experimental and unsupported, and Google Home, Alexa and Home Assistant mostly rely on community or third-party routes.

Apps

Loxone App

The main app for controlling a Loxone building: lighting, shading, alarms, ventilation, energy, music and more, with favourites, scenes, push notifications and the Automation Designer for no-code rules. It requires a Loxone Miniserver. Loxone lists Android, iOS and Windows, and the release notes also mention Apple Watch and macOS. We did not open a Google Play listing. Published by Loxone Electronics GmbH.

iPhone

Loxone Config

The configuration software installers use to set up and program the building. Loxone says changes made in the app's Expert Mode are synced back to it. We found no app store listing for it.

PlatformStatusWhat it meansSources
Connection
Loxone Tree, Link and AirYesLoxone's own buses. Per its technical page the Miniserver supports up to 50 Tree devices and up to 30 Link extensions, and the Miniserver Go supports up to 128 Air devices. The Miniserver knowledge base says the Tree cable also carries 24 V power, with branches up to 500 m.Loxone: Miniserver technical data Loxone: Miniserver
LAN and Wi-FiYesThe Miniserver connects over LAN (IPv4 and IPv6, HTTPS/SSL). Wi-Fi is not described as a built-in interface; the knowledge base says it reaches Wi-Fi through the LAN port to a router.Loxone: Miniserver technical data Loxone: Miniserver
Loxone Cloud (Remote Connect and CloudDNS)OfficialLoxone says Remote Connect needs no port forwarding and is encrypted end to end. The Miniserver can also use Loxone Cloud DNS for its external address. The pages do not say whether local automation depends on an internet connection.Loxone: Miniserver technical data Loxone: Miniserver
Bluetooth, Zigbee, Z-Wave, ThreadUnconfirmedNone are mentioned on the Loxone pages we read. A community wiki page about Z-Wave integration appeared in search results, but we could not open it.Searched, no source
MatterOfficialLoxone offers an experimental integration in a Loxone Config beta (14.4). Loxone devices are paired to an external Matter controller such as Alexa, Apple Home or Google, so the Miniserver acts as a source of devices, not a controller. Loxone does not recommend it in active customer installations, gives no support, and reports heavy network congestion in tests. Supported function blocks include switches, blinds, lights, ventilation, gates and room controllers.Loxone: experimental Matter integration Matter-Smarthome.de report
Voice assistants and ecosystems
Apple HomeOfficialLoxone documents HomeKit with Siri voice control. It needs a current Miniserver or Miniserver Go and is not supported on Gen 1. Setup uses a wizard in the Loxone App and needs an internet connection initially. Limits include 149 objects, one connected Apple account (others can be invited) and a list of supported function types such as lighting, shading, room ventilation and room controllers.Loxone: HomeKit Apple Home accessories list
Google HomeUnconfirmedNo dedicated Google Home integration found on Loxone's pages. Loxone's experimental Matter page names Google as a possible controller but requires a Google developer account and a test project. The third-party 1Home Server also lists Google Home.Loxone: experimental Matter integration 1Home Server for Loxone

1Home Server for LoxoneCommunityA third-party hardware bridge from 1Home Solutions that reads the Miniserver over its API and exposes it through Matter to Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa (beta), SmartThings (beta) and Home Assistant. It lists a 250-device limit and a price of 599 EUR plus VAT. We found no Loxone endorsement.

Common questions about Loxone

Does Loxone support Matter?

Yes, officially. Loxone offers an experimental integration in a Loxone Config beta (14.4). Loxone devices are paired to an external Matter controller such as Alexa, Apple Home or Google, so the Miniserver acts as a source of devices, not a controller. Loxone does not recommend it in active customer installations, gives no support, and reports heavy network congestion in tests. Supported function blocks include switches, blinds, lights, ventilation, gates and room controllers.

Does Loxone work with Alexa?

Unconfirmed. We found no official Loxone Alexa skill. The experimental Matter page describes pairing through the Alexa app's Add Device flow. The third-party 1Home Server lists Alexa as beta.

Does Loxone work with Google Home?

Unconfirmed. No dedicated Google Home integration found on Loxone's pages. Loxone's experimental Matter page names Google as a possible controller but requires a Google developer account and a test project. The third-party 1Home Server also lists Google Home.

Does Loxone work with Apple Home (HomeKit)?

Yes, officially. Loxone documents HomeKit with Siri voice control. It needs a current Miniserver or Miniserver Go and is not supported on Gen 1.
