Apple has just recently
announced its upcoming smarthome utility app know as "HOME"
in its forth-coming operating system iOS 9. Apple is testing this new
app for upcoming iOS 9, it'll help the users to setup their smart
home appliances simply using their iPhone and iPads.
Apple introduced its
homekit during the Worldwide Developers Conference last year,
showcasing its presence into "InternetOfThings". According
to a report by 9to5mac, Apple has quietly continued to work on the
HomeKit framework and Home app, which could be shown alongside iOS 9
at WWDC next month.
The Home application is
currently represented by a ‘house’ glyph atop a dark yellow
background, and is said to be ‘fairly basic’ in its
functionality.
The report points out a
few features of the new app which include, wirelessly discovering and
setting up compatible HomeKit devices, creating a virtual
representation of rooms at home to easily organise and connect
HomeKit devices, utilizing the Apple TV as a hub connecting all of
the HomeKit devices and offering a series of screens to help users
find new HomeKit devices and apps.
As of now, it is unclear
whether this new app will be announced at WWDC next month. It is
reportedly believed that the new Home app could remain solely for
internal usage and Apple could push for customers to control their
HomeKit devices solely via Siri and accompanying App Store apps.
