Following the public rollout of iOS 27 and tvOS 27, Apple has introduced Apple Intelligence capabilities for its Home app, though access now comes with significant subscription costs.
The new features enhance HomeKit Secure Video by generating AI-powered summaries. Users can receive concise text descriptions identifying individuals or objects detected by compatible security cameras, paired directly with the relevant video clip. Additionally, a novel video search function allows for quicker navigation through footage, while the ability to stitch recordings from multiple cameras into a single continuous clip helps homeowners monitor their property without manually scrolling through separate sources.
However, unlocking these tools requires a pricier cloud storage tier. Access begins at $9.99 monthly for the 2TB iCloud Plus plan, with costs escalating up to $60 per month depending on the storage level selected.
