Home 4+

Easily and securely control your smart home using your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, HomePod, Apple TV, Mac and Apple Vision Pro.

Features

Home tab makes it easier to navigate, organise, view and control all your smart home accessories.

Categories for climate, lights, security, speakers and TVs, and water allow for quick access to all the accessories for that specific category.

A multi-camera view displays up to four cameras in the Home tab and you can scroll to view additional cameras.

Guest access provides date- and time-based access to locks, garage doors and alarm systems for visitors in the Home app.*

Robot vacuum cleaners can be added to the Home app and used in scenes and automations. Or just use Siri to “clean the living room”.**

Activity History lets you see a recent history for garage door, door lock, security systems and contact sensor events.***

Grid Forecast uses data from your local electric grid to show when it will be running on cleaner sources, so you can plan when to charge devices or run appliances. (Contiguous US Only)

Electricity usage and rate plan information are displayed for eligible customers when connecting their utility account to the Home app, starting with PG&E in California. (US only)

Siri makes it easy to use your voice to control accessories. Say a phrase like “Lock the front door” or “Play jazz in the living room”, or create a scene and say “Goodnight” to turn off all your lights.

Control Center gives you quick access to your favourite accessories and scenes, and a dedicated and customisable section for additional accessories and scenes.

HomePod and Apple TV are home hubs that manage your home while you’re away. Automatically run scenes and control accessories based on your location, the time of day, a sensor detection or the action of an accessory.

HomeKit Secure Video**** lets you view live video and recordings, as well as get notifications when people, pets, vehicles or packages are detected from your cameras or video doorbell. View a 10-day recording history in the Home app and you can share or save recordings.

Adaptive lighting***** lets you set compatible light bulbs to automatically adjust their colour temperature throughout the day to maximise comfort and productivity. Wake up in the morning to warm colours, stay alert at midday with cooler tones and wind down at night by removing blue light.

Accessories compatible with the Matter smart home connectivity standard are supported seamlessly in the Home app alongside your HomeKit-enabled accessories, so you can control them easily and securely using the Home app and Siri on your Apple devices.
