Powered by Apple Intelligence and Siri AI, Apple HomeView offers customers a new way to enjoy entertainment, stay connected with family members and manage their smart homes.

Featuring a 7-inch Liquid Retina display and an upgraded version of Siri designed to be more capable and conversational, Apple HomeView aims to become the central hub of the household while offering personalised experiences to individual users.

The device combines entertainment, communication and smart home management in one place. Users can play music, make FaceTime calls, monitor their homes and manage hands-free automations through voice commands, with privacy and security built into the experience.

HomeView can recognise up to six people through facial recognition and display personalised content from Messages, FaceTime, Calendar, Reminders and Find My.

With Siri AI's expanded knowledge capabilities, users can ask questions on a wide range of topics and receive detailed responses.

Siri AI also features onscreen awareness, allowing it to answer questions and perform actions based on the content displayed on the screen. When paired with an Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhone or iPad, Siri can access relevant personal context, including information from Calendar, Messages and other supported apps, to deliver more personalised responses and perform tasks across applications.

Privacy and personalisation

Apple has emphasised privacy as a key feature of HomeView, particularly because the device is designed to be shared by multiple household members.

Even when the entire family uses the same device, personal content remains private. Individual information appears only when HomeView recognises a user and their paired iPhone or iPad is nearby and has been recently unlocked.

Designed to fit different living spaces, HomeView can be placed on a tabletop as a central household device or mounted on a wall in areas such as entryways and hallways.

Both models work seamlessly with Apple's Home app, allowing users to manage settings, automations and compatible smart home accessories.
