Does the Philips Hue Wall Switch Module (battery) work with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home?

The Hue Wall Switch Module lets an existing wall switch control Hue lights.

It installs behind the switch, runs on a battery and needs a Hue Bridge. It suits HomeKit, Google Home, Alexa and SmartThings users through an integration (Zigbee). Home Assistant users reach it through an integration (a Matter bridge).
