The term "smart home" has been around for a while now. It all started a few years ago with smart light bulbs that you could control with your smartphone. Siri turn it on and off. Later, smart locks, doorbells, security cameras, and other products began to appear on the market. After several years of smart home development, we are now in a completely different place and the functions of smart devices are almost unlimited. Apple within iOS 13.2 introduced some new features HomeKitua together with them updated its device list supporting HomeKit.

Apple announced collaboration on routers and security cameras from certain companies at this year's conference WWDC. The lecture featured logos of well-known global companies, including Eufy, Logitech, and Netatmo in the field of camera system manufacturers, and Linksys, Eero, and Charter Spectrum in the router category. However, the exact models were not yet known. However, the updated list of devices corrects these shortcomings and gives users a precise view of which devices from certain companies will be compatible with HomeKitem to cooperate. Specifically, these are the following facilities:

  • Security cameras supporting HomeKit
    • Logitech Circle 2
    • eufyCam 2
    • eufyCam 2C
    • Netatmo Smart Indoor Camera
    • Netatmo Smart Outdoor Camera
    • Robin ProLine Doorbell
  • Routers supporting HomeKit
    • Eero
    • Eero Pro
    • Linksys Velop Mesh Wi-Fi System

Smart security cameras supporting HomeKit and at the same time a new service HomeKit Secure Video, they will be able to detect motion among other functions. As soon as they detect motion, they will start recording, which will then be placed on the paired iCloud account. Apple however, it will not count these videos against your prepaid storage plan. Videos will be processed locally in Apple TV or through HomePodu. So far it looks like the newly introduced feature HomeKit Secure The video could have been a great success, so minileast in the United States. In the Czech Republic, it depends on whether cameras and routers supporting HomeKit more accessible.
