CTOnews.com February 9 news, confirmed by foreign technology media MacRumors, Apple will reintroduce the new version of HomeKit in the iOS 16.4 update. Apple released the update with iOS 16. 2 in December last year, but withdrew the update a week later due to errors and installation problems.
Apple said at the time that the withdrawal was temporary and would continue to promote a new version of the HomeKit. After mining the relevant code, Nicol á s Á lvarez, a foreign developer, found that Apple will rerelease a new version of HomeKit in iOS 16.4. CTOnews.com reminder: the first beta version of iOS 16.4 will be released as soon as this week.
The first version of the new Home architecture causes some HomeKit devices to disappear in HomeKit settings or remain in a "configuration / update" state. It also led to the failure of invitations to share Home with others and destroyed some users' HomeKit security video records.
