Apple HomeView Leaks Point to $299 Hub Adding Security Cameras, AI Apps

Summary
$299 HomeView, due in stores Nov. 13, appears set for two unannounced upgrades: security camera functions and support for third-party AI chat apps.
HomeView 27.2 code reportedly shows Apple has already built much of the plumbing for HomeKit Secure Video integration, though Apple has not confirmed the feature.
iOS 27.3 beta code adds “conversational apps” as a third supported category for HomeView, alongside the audio and video apps available at launch through iPhone-linked CarPlay compatibility.
The leaks suggest Apple is planning a broader software roadmap for its new home device, but both features remain unfinished and could still change or never ship.
