"HOME" Can Be The New Smart Home App by Apple for iOS 9


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.
