Apple announces a new smart home hub called HomeView, featuring a 7-inch Liquid Retina display and Siri AI. According to Apple senior vice president Greg Joswiak, the device is designed to be shared by all in the household while feeling personalized to each user. It acknowledges faces to switch from a shared screen to an individual's experience, offers powerful sound, FaceTime connectivity, and easy smart home control.
Powered by Apple Intelligence with Siri AI, the HomeView uses personal context from iPhones to help users find information and get more done securely. Its 7-inch display has True Tone and automatic brightness, ideal for low-light settings. The device includes various face displays, adjustable based on distance, and supports multiroom audio.
The HomeView supports up to six users with personalized experiences, private use, and shared photo albums and music. It integrates with FaceTime, Center Stage, and Intercom for household communication. The device also functions as a sous chef, converting web content into step-by-step instructions and tracking timers and ingredients.
The HomeView comes in silver, starlight, rose pink, and space gray, with matching cables. The wall-mounted version is available in silver and space gray, using three mounting options from Schneider Home. Priced at $299, pre-orders begin today with a launch on November 13.
