According to information from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple plans to launch a dedicated smart home operating system, rumored to be named homeOS.
This operating system is likely to play a central role in future Apple devices aimed at smart homes, including a range of smart displays.
The most surprising news is that Apple is already working on two different smart screens.
The first model is expected to be a more affordable version, which could hit the market as early as next year.
This display will integrate with Apple apps such as Calendar, Notes, and Home, offering easy access to household smart functions.
For those seeking more advanced technology, Apple is also developing a premium smart display.
However, this more exclusive model is not expected to be available until 2026, The Verge reports.
Apple Intelligence
As part of its overall strategy, Apple Intelligence is expected to play a prominent role in both the operating system and the screens.
While there is limited information on how this technology will be integrated, it is expected that Apple will utilize artificial intelligence to enhance the user experience.
Apple has experimented with smart devices in the past, but this move toward dedicated smart screens and a home control system shows that the company has big ambitions to become a major player in the smart home market.
