Apple has long been rumored to be working on a swathe of new smart home hardware, with Siri AI at the heart of the company’s renewed home push. As Siri AI becomes a bigger figure in its main operating systems, including iOS 27, Apple is ready to capitalize on using it in the smart home.
According to Bloomberg on Tuesday, Apple is using Siri AI as the anchor point for the next wave of smart home releases. This includes hardware arriving between October of 2026 and early in 2027.
