Does the IKEA BILRESA dual button work with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home?

The BILRESA dual button speaks Matter over Thread.

For app control you need a Thread border router and a Matter controller, such as the DIRIGERA hub. It is a two-button battery remote. It suits HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant users, with native support through Matter over Thread.
