The Home app makes it easier to control all your smart home accessories1 — on all your Apple devices. It’s secure and protects your personal data. And with Apple TV set up as the ultimate home hub, the Home app unlocks the full potential of your smart home.
Categories like Lights, Security and Climate are at the top of the Home tab, giving you instant access to accessories and their status.
The Home app is already compatible with, and helps control, a wide variety of smart home accessories1 — with more on the way every day. And setting up a smart home accessory is simple and secure. Just scan the accessory to pair it with the Home app.
Apple TV. The key to even more control.
The Home app can do even more with the help of your Apple TV. It can be set up as a smart home hub,2 giving you access to your home while you’re away, and letting you automate all of your home’s smart accessories. And your Apple TV hub is also an essential building block for Matter — the new smart home industry standard that will be compatible with more accessories, and even connect them across platforms.3

Privacy at home is more important than ever. That’s why your Home app data is stored in a way that Apple can’t read it. Your accessories are controlled by your Apple devices instead of the cloud, and communication is encrypted end-to-end. So only you and the people you choose can access your data.
