How It Works

1
Plug it in
Connect the USB-A end to any port - router, charger, or wall USB adapter. The LED comes on.
2
Pair to Wi-Fi via the app
Download ThirdReality (iOS or Android). Add device → Hub Gen2 Plus → enter your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi credentials.
3
Pair Zigbee devices
Put any Zigbee 3.0 device into pairing mode (button hold). The hub finds it in 30 seconds and adds it to the app.
4
Build scenes + schedules
Create automations: 'water plants every other morning', 'motion + after 8pm → turn on hall light'. Group devices for one-tap control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I plug it in?
Any USB-A port - router USB, phone charger, or a wall USB adapter. Place it somewhere central in the house so Zigbee signal reaches all your devices.
How is this different from the Smart Bridge MZ1?
The Hub Gen2 Plus is a full standalone hub with its own app, scenes, and scheduling. The Bridge MZ1 forwards Zigbee devices into Matter for use in Apple Home / Google / SmartThings. Get the Hub if you want the ThirdReality app as your daily driver; get the Bridge if you're already living in Apple Home.
What devices does it work with?
All ThirdReality Zigbee accessories plus most other Zigbee 3.0 devices (Aqara sensors, generic Tuya Zigbee, etc). Try-and-see is reliable for any Zigbee 3.0 device.
Does it really keep working when internet drops?
Yes - basic scenes, schedules, and motion triggers run locally on the hub. Remote access (using the app from outside the house) needs internet, but in-house control keeps working.
How many devices can I add?
Up to 32 Zigbee devices. Plenty for a typical home - sensors, switches, plugs, lights, the watering kit, motion detectors all under one hub.
Does it work during EDL cuts?
Plug it into a UPS-backed USB port or a battery pack, and it keeps running. Pair it with a Zigbee device that's also battery-powered (sensors, the watering kit) and your automations survive the gap.
Is the app in Arabic?
The ThirdReality app supports multiple languages including Arabic. The quick-start guide is in English.
What if it breaks? Is there a warranty?
Standard Smartio warranty applies - return the defective unit in its original box and we'll replace it.
