Neff is a German kitchen appliance brand, founded in Bretten in 1877 and part of BSH Hausgeraete since 1982. Its connected ovens, hobs, hoods and other appliances are controlled through the Home Connect app, the same platform used by Bosch, Siemens and Gaggenau.

Neff appliances connect over Wi-Fi to the Home Connect cloud, and the Home Connect app is the main way to control them. There is no hub to buy. Alexa and Google Home voice control, IFTTT and the Home Assistant integration all go through that same cloud rather than a local connection.
That suits remote status checks, finish notifications and simple routines, such as a lamp that turns on when the oven is done. It is weaker if you want Matter or automations that keep running when the internet or BSH's servers are down. Matter is only offered on some cooling appliances according to Home Connect, and we could not confirm that it covers Neff.

| Platform | Status | What it means | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|
| Connection | |||
| Wi-Fi | Yes | Neff says its Home Connect appliances need Wi-Fi and the Home Connect app. We found no statement of supported Wi-Fi bands on the pages we opened. Control runs through the Home Connect cloud. | Neff Home Connect page (UK) Home Connect app page |
| Bluetooth, Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread | Not mentioned | None of these are mentioned on the Neff or Home Connect pages we opened. | Neff Home Connect page (UK) |
| Matter | Unconfirmed | Home Connect has a Matter page saying the standard covers several appliance types, but its list of Matter-enabled products currently covers only refrigerators, fridge-freezers and freezers. Pairing uses a code from the Home Connect app, entered in a Matter controller such as Google Home, Alexa or Apple Home. The page names no brands, so we could not confirm that any Neff appliance supports Matter. | Home Connect Matter page |
| Voice assistants and ecosystems | |||
| Google Home | Official | Neff's Home Connect page names Google Home and Alexa for asking about programme progress and setting a reminder when a programme ends. Home Connect also lists Google Assistant voice commands and routines. | Neff Home Connect page (UK) Home Connect app page Google Home compatible devices |
| Amazon Alexa | Official | Named by Neff and by Home Connect for voice commands such as making coffee or preheating the oven, and for routines. Which Neff appliance types are supported is not itemised on the pages we opened. | Neff Home Connect page (UK) Home Connect app page Alexa Skills store |
| Apple Home | Community | No official HomeKit support found for Neff. A community Homebridge plugin, homebridge-homeconnect, maps Home Connect appliances into HomeKit through a Home Connect developer application. Its page lists Neff only as a BSH trademark, so Neff support is implied rather than stated. Appliances that gain Matter support could in principle be added through Apple Home, but that is unconfirmed for Neff. | homebridge-homeconnect Home Connect Matter page Apple Home accessories list |
| Samsung SmartThings | Unconfirmed | Home Connect's Bosch partner page lists SmartThings for appliance status, notifications and automations. That page covers Bosch and does not name Neff, so we could not confirm Neff support. | Bosch Home Connect partner page |
| Open platforms and developer access | |||
| Home Assistant | Yes | Neff is a built-in virtual integration that points to the Home Connect integration, which talks to the official Home Connect cloud API (Cloud Push) and uses Home Connect developer credentials with OAuth. It is maintained by Home Assistant contributors, not by Neff or BSH. Supported appliance types include ovens, cooktops, hoods, dishwashers, fridge freezers, washers, dryers and coffee makers, depending on the appliance and API permissions. | Home Assistant: Neff Home Assistant: Home Connect |
| Homey | Official | Athom hosts a Bosch-Siemens Home Connect app listed as published by Home Connect GmbH. It works on Homey Cloud, Homey Pro and self-hosted servers, but each device type is listed as Cloud with Homey Bridge required. The page does not mention Neff, so Neff compatibility is unconfirmed. | Homey app page |
| openHAB | Yes | The Home Connect binding is in the official openHAB add-on list and goes through the Home Connect cloud API, with a developer client ID and secret. It is maintained by the openHAB community, not by BSH, and its page mentions Bosch and Siemens but not Neff (we read the archived 5.1 documentation). A separate Home Connect Direct binding talks to appliances locally using downloaded appliance profiles and does not name brands either. | openHAB binding (5.1 archive) Home Connect Direct binding |
| Node-RED | Community | A community package, node-red-contrib-home-connect, adds nodes for the official cloud API with OAuth, plus experimental read-only local access. It lists Neff among its keywords and states it is unaffiliated with BSH or Neff. | Node-RED package |
| Hubitat | Community | A community Home Connect Integration v3 for Hubitat uses OAuth through the developer portal. Its author has tested only a Bosch dishwasher and only the dishwasher type is supported so far. Neff is not named. | Hubitat community post |
| Domoticz | Not found | No plugin found when we searched for Home Connect integrations. | Searched, no source |
| Control4 | Unconfirmed | Not mentioned on the Home Connect partner page we opened, and no integration found. Crestron is the only control system listed there. | Bosch Home Connect partner page |
| Philips Hue | Not mentioned | No direct integration found. Home Connect's own IFTTT example flashes a Hue light when a washing machine finishes, which runs through IFTTT. | Home Connect on IFTTT |
| IFTTT | Official | Home Connect has an IFTTT partner page, and IFTTT's Home Connect applets page says the service covers appliances from Bosch, Siemens, Neff, Gaggenau and Thermador. Examples include an oven finishing preheating, a hood starting or a coffee machine running out of beans, linked to other services. Neff's own page lists IFTTT, Fitbit and LaMetric as connected-device partners. | IFTTT Home Connect applets Home Connect on IFTTT Neff Home Connect partners (BG) |
| Home Connect public API | Official | Home Connect offers a RESTful API over HTTPS with JSON, used through the Developer Portal. It covers 17 appliance categories, including ovens, cooktops, hoods, dishwashers and coffee machines, and all calls go to Home Connect's servers. A community Node-RED package reports a vendor limit of 1,000 calls per 24 hours. | Home Connect API docs |
