From the family schedule to the whole home.

Keep upcoming events from one or more calendars visible to everyone at home.

Give a compatible iPad a permanent place in the hallway, kitchen, or living room.

See the day’s events, weather, cameras, and favorite home controls while the family gets ready.

Put the schedule and essential home context on the television for glanceable viewing from the sofa.

Share only approved rooms, devices, scenes, cameras, sensors, and Ambient access while owner settings stay behind a PIN.

Turn a compatible iPad or Apple TV you already own into a dedicated home display.

See favorite rooms, devices, scenes, cameras, and sensors in one dashboard.

Open a room and work with the devices that belong there instead of searching through the whole home.

Keep the devices and scenes used every day at the front of the dashboard.

Start arrival, departure, evening, sleep, or any other scene already created in Apple Home.

Use dedicated controls for compatible lights, outlets, switches, fans, climate devices, blinds, curtains, televisions, robot vacuums, and more.

Turn a wall-mounted iPad into a front-door call screen. When HomeDeck is active, a compatible HomeKit doorbell opens full screen automatically, shows live video or the latest snapshot, and keeps supported answer, talk, end-call, and door controls together.

Arm Home, Away, or Night mode with biometrics or a security PIN, use an exit delay, and keep the active security state visible full screen.

Bring motion, contact, smoke, leak, air-quality, temperature, humidity, and other supported sensor states into view.

Switch compatible tunable-white lights to convenient warm or cool white presets without adjusting the color temperature manually.

Scan lighting, shades, climate, televisions, and robot vacuums by type instead of searching through one long list.

Use the new layouts to keep time, weather, selected events, sensors, cameras, and music visible between interactions.

Combine upcoming events from calendars already connected to iPad, including iCloud, Google, Exchange, Yahoo, CalDAV, and subscriptions.

Choose today’s hourly forecast or a five-day outlook and keep available weather alerts alongside the home dashboard.

Keep Apple Music playback and now-playing information visible on the dashboard and in Ambient mode.

Use Siri and Shortcuts to open HomeDeck, show Ambient or rooms, run scenes, and control supported power devices.

Configure supported preferences and guest profiles on iPad and carry them to Apple TV through personal iCloud.
