Earlier this week Ming-Chi Kuo suggested that we’ll see an Apple smart home camera in 2026, with the company confident it will prove to be a popular accessory, selling in the tens of millions per year.

HomeKit Secure Video (HSV) is different from other smart cameras as it uses end-to-end encryption so that not even Apple can view your footage, and even if there was a breach the footage wouldn’t be viewable by anyone else. Additionally, while it does require an iCloud subscription, video footage doesn’t actually count against your storage limit.

Privacy will be assured with an Apple smart home camera, as HSV will be the only form of cloud storage supported, right out of the box.

Apple Intelligence features seem likely to be included in the new smart cameras, allowing it to recognize a wider range of situations and integrate more effectively with HomeKit.
