And the adoption of the Matter standard means an Apple HomePad could connect to all kinds of (non-Apple branded) devices. Then add Apple Intelligence, and you've got something that's truly useful for controlling your smart home. For example, if you have a compatible smart camera set up, you can view its feed or recordings on the device. You could see who's at the door, for example, or ask Siri to show you the front porch to see if the delivery person has just dumped the box and run off again. Apple Intelligence could even notify you if the person is friend or foe before you even look at the video feed. </p> <div id="mntl-sc-block_16-0" class="comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-adslot mntl-block"></div> <p id="mntl-sc-block_17-0" class="comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html"> It could "display a variety of different types of visual material, including images, movies, and animations.

If we take the iPhone and iPad as the model for Apple's future HomePad screen, it doesn't look good. Well over a decade into its life, the iPad remains, like the iPhone, strictly single-user (a multi-user option is available in education, but as schools mostly use Chromebooks, it's a rather niche feature). No matter how powerful your iPad is, no matter that it has plenty of RAM and storage—you cannot let another person log in and use it like you can with a Mac. </p> <div id="mntl-sc-block_26-0" class="comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-adslot mntl-block"></div> <p id="mntl-sc-block_27-0" class="comp mntl-sc-block mntl-sc-block-html"> Fortunately, the answer comes from Apple's own HomePods.
