Motionblinds is the smart blinds brand of Coulisse, a Dutch window covering company. It makes motors and bridges that turn roller, honeycomb, roman, venetian, curtain and vertical blinds into connected products. They are controlled from the Motionblinds apps, with a bridge for remote access and smart home links.
Motionblinds uses several connection paths. Older and standard motors talk over Bluetooth or a 433 MHz radio and need a bridge to reach your network. The Wi-Fi bridge works with the Motionblinds Bridge app and a local interface, while the newer Matter Wi-Fi bridge (CM-55) exposes those motors to Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings. Eve Motionblinds motors skip the bridge and join Matter over Thread directly.
That suits people who want blinds inside an existing smart home, especially through Matter or Home Assistant. It is less simple because the options differ by motor and bridge: the older Motionblinds Bridge app is listed as not working with Apple HomeKit, and a motor on Bluetooth alone has no voice or away-from-home control without a bridge.

The app for the Motionblinds Wi-Fi Bridge. It sets up the bridge, groups blinds into rooms and scenes, sets timers including sunrise and sunset, shares access, and links the bridge to a smart home platform. The listing says up to 30 blinds, 20 scenes and 20 timers per bridge, requires a Motionblinds account, and says it works with Google, Alexa and SmartThings but not with Apple HomeKit. Published by Coulisse B.V. The Android link uses a package name seen on a third-party listing, and we could not open Google Play to confirm it.
Sets up and controls Bluetooth motors without an account by scanning the motor's setup code. The listing gives up to 3 timers per motor stored in the motor, sharing with up to 5 people, and range of roughly 10 metres. Control from outside that range, and smart home or voice control, need a Motionblinds bridge. The listing and its reviews report no scenes or grouping. The Android link uses a package name seen on third-party listings, and we could not open Google Play to confirm it.
The app for the Matter Wi-Fi bridge. It controls blinds with schedules, levels and scenes, and the listing describes it as a Matter bridge that connects Motionblinds devices to Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings. Setup is by scanning the bridge setup code. Published by Coulisse B.V., with iOS 15.6 or later. We found no Android listing for it.

Many Motionblinds motors use Bluetooth. The Motionblinds Bluetooth app controls them within roughly 10 metres without a bridge or account, and timers are stored in the motor. Remote, voice and smart home control need a separate bridge.
Home Assistant's page says uni- and bi-directional blinds work through a 433 MHz bridge, and its Matter page lists Bluetooth and 433 MHz motors supported through the CM-55 bridge. We did not find a Motionblinds page explaining the radio in detail.
The Motionblinds Wi-Fi Bridge connects to your Wi-Fi network and the app sets it up and pairs blinds. A retailer page for the Matter bridge lists 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Home Assistant says Wi-Fi-connected blinds can also be controlled directly.
Eve Motionblinds motors use Matter over Thread, built with Eve Systems, and need no bridge. Home Assistant says they require a Thread Border Router, and Homey's page says they join Homey Pro and Pro mini through the built-in Thread Border Router.
The Motionblinds Matter Wi-Fi Bridge is listed in the Connectivity Standards Alliance certification database (Matter 1.0, Wi-Fi transport, certified 10 October 2024). Its app listing describes it as a Matter bridge for Bluetooth and 433 MHz motors. Eve Motionblinds motors are Matter devices over Thread. The Matter bridge works locally according to Home Assistant.
The Motionblinds Bridge listing says the bridge works with Google. The Matter Bridge listing and the CSA entry name Google Home, and the Eve Motionblinds post expected Google Home support through firmware updates. Exact Google Home hubs for Eve motors are on a retailer page.
The Motionblinds Bridge listing says the bridge works with Alexa, and the Matter Bridge listing and CSA entry name Amazon Alexa. A retailer page lists compatible Echo models for Eve Motionblinds. We did not find a dedicated Alexa skill page.
Eve Motionblinds work with Apple Home through Matter, which the Coulisse post described as the first supported platform. The Matter Bridge listing also names Apple Home. The older Motionblinds Bridge listing says it does not work with Apple HomeKit.
The Motionblinds Bridge and Matter Bridge listings and the CSA entry name SmartThings. A retailer page lists compatible SmartThings hubs for Eve Motionblinds.
Three built-in integrations exist: Motionblinds (local push, for CM-20, CMD-01 and similar bridges plus Wi-Fi blinds, needing a 16-character key from the app), Motionblinds Bluetooth (assumed state, no automatic state updates), and Motionblinds Matter (local, for the CM-55 bridge and Eve motors). The Home Assistant project maintains them, not Motionblinds. Motionblinds joined Works with Home Assistant in March 2025 for the Matter products.
Coulisse B.V. publishes a Motionblinds app marked as an official developer. It lists Homey Cloud, Homey Pro, Homey Pro mini and Homey Self-Hosted Server, and covers Matter and local API (LAN) devices. Every device is marked Homey Bridge required, which conflicts with Homey's Works with page saying Thread motors connect directly to Homey Pro. We could not resolve which applies.
A community Homebridge plugin for Connector-protocol hubs lists the CM-20 and CMD-01 as expected to work and needs the app key. It is a hobby project and we could not confirm its maintenance status.
Motionblinds Wi-Fi bridges expose a local interface. Homey's partner page says the bridges' local API gives local control without cloud access, and Home Assistant describes UDP multicast communication using a key shown in the Motionblinds app. A Coulisse developer API manual for the CM-20 and CMD-01 appears in search results on third-party hosts, but we could not open it.
Checked 11 November 2026 against the brand's own pages, app store listings and each project's own page. “Not found” means we searched and found nothing, not that it is impossible. Compatibility changes often. Spot an error? Tell us and we will fix it.
