Thread on a Mac
Low-power mesh for Matter devices · IoT
Thread is a low-power, self-healing wireless mesh — the transport behind many Matter products. It needs a Thread Border Router on your network; Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini act as one. There's no macOS service to install; manage Thread via Home Assistant or your Matter controller.
