Apple Reportedly Preparing Siri AI Home Hub For October

Apple may soon release a new screen-based device for controlling things at home.

The device would use a more advanced version of Siri to answer requests and perform tasks.

It could control smart-home devices, play media, support video calls, and work as an intercom.

People might place it on a stand or hang it on a wall.

A camera could recognize who is looking at the screen and show that person’s information.

Apple employees are reportedly testing the device in their homes.

The product was reportedly delayed after an earlier plan to release it in 2024.

Apple is also reportedly reducing some Fitness+ work while it considers broader changes to the service.
