At WWDC 2024, Apple introduced several new features and improvements for HomeKit. Here are the key updates:
-
Controls Gallery: Users can now add HomeKit controls to their Control Center for easy access. This makes it more convenient to manage smart home devices directly from the Control Center.
-
Action Button Integration: For the first time, users can assign HomeKit controls to the action button on their iPhone 15 Pro. This allows for quick access to frequently used smart home actions.
-
Lock Screen Controls: HomeKit controls can now appear on the lock screen, providing even faster access to smart home functionalities without needing to unlock the device.
These updates make HomeKit more integrated and accessible across iOS, enhancing the user experience for managing smart home devices.
