ADT to Offer In-Home Installation of Apple's New HomeView and More
The device is built as a shared home hub with Siri AI, while Apple also adds new cameras, thermostats, a doorbell and a smart lock.
- On Tuesday, October 13, 2026, Apple unveiled the $299 HomeView smart display, featuring a 7-inch Liquid Retina display and A18 chip designed to manage smart home devices and FaceTime calls.
- Expanding its smart home ecosystem, Apple debuted the Apple Home Collection—cameras, thermostats, and locks developed with LG Electronics and Schneider Electric—alongside the $149 HomePod Mini 2 and new Apple TV 4K.
- Equipped with facial recognition for up to six users, the device gates personal messages and calendar data behind face authentication, with camera footage processed locally on the A18 chip for privacy.
- Apple confirmed the HomeView will not be available in the European Union, as the device relies on Siri AI, which remains blocked on iOS in that region due to ongoing interoperability disputes.
- Shipments are scheduled to begin November 13 across eight markets, while two wall mounts are available for preorder now and a third mounting option launches in early 2027.
