Apple is developing a new smart home device, tentatively named HomeHub, which features a design reminiscent of the classic iMac G4. The device is expected to include a 6-inch display mounted on a hemispherical metal base via a support arm, giving it a distinct square-shaped appearance.
Leaked interface details suggest the device will utilize a Standby mode similar to the iPhone Duo. Users will be able to display photos from iCloud, including shared albums and memories. The system is designed to recognize individual family members, allowing for personalized widgets and content tailored to each user.
The HomeHub is expected to support essential applications such as weather, calendar, music, reminders, and messaging. However, reports indicate that the device may not offer support for the App Store, limiting its functionality to pre-installed system programs.
