I've been invited to test a smart lamp by Meross the makers of smart plugs, but the lamp is only Google Home, Alexa, or Smartthings compatible, if however, I put a HomeKit smart plug on it will that voice activate it in HomeKit with a Homepod I have

It won’t activate any of the lamps smart functions, how could it? All it will do is turn on or off the power to the lamp itself.

I thought that may be the case that’s why I never said yes straight away because if they’re wanting someone to beta test they obviously are looking for someone to test all of it

it will really help keep everything together if you only make one topic
this is at least the second time you've made multiple posts at the same time on basically the same thing, you just ask the question a slightly different way
