I was curious to see if anyone has had any success completely setting up a Tapo L535E Matter-certified smart color lightbulb. I am able to add the bulb to the EISY via the UD Mobile app  “add a matter device" and it adds successfully, but I do not have the options of changing colors on the administrative console; it acts just like a white bulb, with only on/off and brightness adjustments. If I remove it from the EISY (via the plug-in) and add it to the Tapo app, I am able to control the color, etc. on the Tapo app, and while the Kasa-beta plug-in recognizes the bulb, The EISY console then also only allows control of brightness, on/off, but no color control. Has anybody has anybody had any experience or success with this?

@jsilver561 split your post out to the ZMatter forum since it more seems to be asking about connecting via Matter option.

I've not tried this device, but I would assume since Matter support is very limited (currently) that you're probably seeing the best you can get through the IoX+Matter integration. I believe it's still just supporting bulbs and switches (I actually haven't been keeping up as I don't have any Matter devices). Meaning that I doubt the Matter support is fully developed to cover properties like color changing. 

Since you are able to get the device to connected through the plugin and can control more features I would suggest that's probably the best course of action at the present time (for your situation).
