With the new Home app, you can securely control all your HomeKit accessories from your favorite iOS device. Have your iPhone turn off the lights. See who’s at the front door from your iPad. And even control things remotely with the help of Apple TV. The Home app makes all your connected devices work harder — and smarter — for you.

No matter which compatible accessories you choose, the Home app makes it easy to set up and control all of them, all from one place. Over 50 brands worldwide are committed to providing products that are compatible with the HomeKit framework, and the number of available accessories is growing every day. And each of these products is reviewed and approved by Apple to help ensure your security when you use it.

Take control of the room with just a tap. The Home app groups accessories by room so you can easily access them based on where they are in your house. You can even tell Siri things like “Turn off my bedroom lights” or “Start heating the upstairs.” And 3D Touch lets you press and hold an icon to perform more complex tasks like dimming the lights or adjusting the thermostat.
