Home of fruit fans, ten years of professional Apple mobile phone technology research! An Apple expert by your side
Every time Apple releases a new beta system, it adds some new ** to hint at new features or even new systems that will be released soon. According to foreign media Macrumors, there are developers in TVOS 17In the first beta version of 4**, information about "homeos" was discovered.
Speaking of "homeos", I still have an impression compared to many fruit fans. Back in June 2021, Apple had mentioned HomeOS in two job postings, but removed the word after noticing. We haven't seen any signs of HomeOS since, until the recent release of tvOS 17In the 4 beta version, we saw it again.
HomeOS was once thought to run on HomePod, and when Apple launched HomePod in 2018, it initially ran a modified version of iOS 11, but in HomePod software 13After the release of the 4, Apple moved the HomePod to the tvOS platform.
So there is speculation that as part of Apple's efforts to expand into the smart home space, Apple may eventually merge tvOS and HomePod software, possibly rebranding it to HomeOS.
According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is actively working on a new smart home display that will compete with the Echo Show, Meta Portal, and Google Nest Hub.
The smart home monitor is said to have an iPad-like design, as well as a camera for FaceTime calls, and it could potentially be wall-mounted as a ** console for smart home products. The device may also come with HomePod-like speakers, and if the product does come out, it could become part of Apple's HomePod lineup.
In addition, there are rumors that Apple is working on a new generation of HomePod with a display on the top, which could be launched as early as 2024. Includes tvOS 17Sharecast sharing has been added to the HomePod in the 4 beta, which further hints that Apple is developing a HomePod with a screen is very likely.
HomeOS could be for an iPad-like home controller that Apple is developing, or it could be for a **HomePod with a screen, or maybe neither.
Considering tvOS 174 will be in March with iOS 17The 4 official versions will be released together, which is close to the time of Apple's spring conference, and by then, we should be able to learn more about HomeOS.
