Apple may have accidentally revealed what’s next for Apple TV and HomePod

Apple’s latest iOS 27 beta may have spoiled a major AI upgrade for the Apple TV and HomePod, and it could arrive sooner than expected.

Apple may have accidentally revealed what’s next for Apple TV and HomePod

Apple may have inadvertently disclosed the future of Apple TV and HomePod at their upcoming Fall event on September 9th. Despite Siri being an integral part of interacting with these devices, they have been left out of the conversation regarding Apple's AI push. A new menu called "Apple Intelligence Report" discovered within the Home app of a beta software for Apple TV and HomePod suggests Apple is planning to bring AI features to these devices.

The presence of this menu indicates that Siri could become much smarter on these devices, making everyday voice requests more useful. However, it is unclear if current models of Apple TV and HomePod will get these AI features due to the demanding hardware requirements of Apple Intelligence. Apple Intelligence support for these devices has not been officially announced yet, but the menu's appearance may hint at a future update. Apple's next major event on September 9th may provide more clarity on this topic.
