Smart home users get plenty to like in iOS 27, thanks to Apple Intelligence in the Home app.

Fewer, Smarter Notifications

The Home app can intelligently combine related activity notifications, so you are not flooded with separate alerts for the same event.

Summaries and Search

For HomeKit Secure Video, Apple Intelligence can describe what happened in selected footage before you watch it. You can also search for a clip by describing what took place, instead of scrubbing through hours of video.

4K Recording

Supported HomeKit Secure Video cameras can now stream and record in 4K, giving you sharper detail when it matters.

Why It Matters

Security cameras generate huge amounts of footage, and AI summaries and search make that footage genuinely useful. It is a practical example of Apple Intelligence saving time in daily life.
