Electricity usage and rate plan information are displayed for eligible customers when connecting their utility account to the Home app and using the latest software — 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.
Widgets on iPhone and iPad give you the ability to see the status of your home and access relevant accessories.
Control Centre gives you quick access to control your favourite accessories and scenes, and features a dedicated and customisable section for additional accessories and scenes.

HomePod or other AirPlay-enabled speakers can be added in the Home app to control your smart home and play music in any room in your house.
HomePod and Apple TV act as a home hub to 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 rich notifications when people, pets, vehicles or package deliveries are detected from your security 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 help 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.
