Apple's 'homeOS' Resurfaces in tvOS Developer Beta

Rumors Suggest a Revamp of Apple's Smart Home Strategy, Possibly Including a New HomePod Device

References to Apple's rumored 'homeOS' have been found in the developer beta version of tvOS 17.4, suggesting the tech giant may be revamping its smart home strategy.
Speculation suggests that homeOS could be a way to rebrand the HomePod's operating system or be linked to Apple's HomeKit.
Rumors suggest that Apple might be working on a new device that combines the HomePod and a touch display, similar to an Echo Show 10.
Evidence of Apple testing tvOS 17 on an iPad Mini as part of a screen-equipped HomePod project was found last year.
Apple's annual Worldwide Developers' Conference (WWDC) in June is expected to be the platform for any major announcements related to homeOS.
