Meaco is a UK brand of dehumidifiers, desiccant dehumidifiers, air circulator fans and air purifiers. Its Wi-Fi models, such as the MeacoDry Arete Two and DD8L Pro dehumidifiers, are controlled from the Meaco app and can be used with Alexa and Google Home.

Smart Meaco models join the home Wi-Fi, and Meaco's pages list both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz on the dehumidifiers we checked. The Meaco app handles remote control, timers and modes, and Meaco's pages say Google Home and Alexa voice control are supported. Home Assistant users report that the app is a Tuya-based reskin, which opens a cloud or a LocalTuya route, but Meaco has not documented this on the pages we read.
That suits people who want a dehumidifier or fan they can start and schedule from a phone or by voice. It is weaker for anyone who wants Apple Home or Matter, or a supported local integration: we found neither, and the Home Assistant routes are community-driven and have gaps such as missing mode selection.

The only Meaco app we found. It connects smart-enabled Meaco products over Wi-Fi to set on and off timers, check status and change settings and modes. Published by Meaco (U.K.) Limited. The App Store listing is iPhone-only (iOS 13 or later) and shows version 1.0.2 dated 11/05/2025. The Google Play developer page shows the app at 2.3 stars. We found no separate Meaco Smart or Meaco Pro app listings; "Pro" appears only in product names such as the DD8L Pro.

| Wi-Fi | Yes | Meaco lists Wi-Fi on the Arete Two 25L and the DD8L Pro, with 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Its 2020 blog post called the CA-HEPA 76x5 its first Wi-Fi air purifier. Home Assistant posters say pairing needs the phone and unit on the same Wi-Fi with client isolation off. | MeacoDry Arete Two 25L Meaco DD8L Pro Meaco blog: Wi-Fi air purifier Home Assistant community thread |
| Tuya platform | Unconfirmed | A Home Assistant poster says the Meaco app is essentially a reskin of the Tuya Smart app, and another notes you cannot use both apps at once because pairing in one removes the device from the other. We found no statement from Meaco on this. | Home Assistant community thread |
| Bluetooth, Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread | Not mentioned | None of these are mentioned on the Meaco product pages we read. | MeacoDry Arete Two 25L Meaco DD8L Pro |

| Google Home | Official | Meaco's Arete Two 25L page says it works with Google Home, and its blog says the Sefte 10 Pro works with Google Assistant. We did not find a step-by-step setup page. | MeacoDry Arete Two 25L Meaco blog: Sefte 10 Pro Google Home compatible devices |
| Amazon Alexa | Official | Meaco's Arete Two 25L page says it works with Amazon Alexa, and the DD8L Pro page banner and the Sefte 10 Pro blog also mention Alexa. | MeacoDry Arete Two 25L Meaco DD8L Pro Meaco blog: Sefte 10 Pro Alexa Skills store |

| Home Assistant | Yes | No Meaco-specific integration was found. Posters report that the Arete Two worked with Home Assistant's built-in Tuya integration after being added to the Tuya Smart app, with limited entities (no mode selection or tank-full indicator). LocalTuya, a community HACS integration, gives local control but needs the device key from a Tuya developer project and decoding of a status bitmask. Other posters report a MeacoCool unit and an Arete 12L the same way. Meaco does not maintain any of this. | Home Assistant: Arete Two thread Home Assistant: Arete One thread |
