Does the SONOFF R5 work with HomeKit, Alexa, and Google Home?

The SwitchMan R5 is a six-button scene controller powered by two CR2032 cells.

It sticks on with 3M adhesive or a magnet, controls SONOFF devices over eWeLink-Remote within 90 m without a network, and triggers up to 18 scene actions by click, double click or long press. It suits Home Assistant users through an integration (the maker's hub).
