Robots Compatible with Homekit
Apple has launched iOS 18.4 with an interesting novelty: now Homekit is compatible with some robot vacuum cleaners Thanks to the Matter standard. This means that you can control them from the house app, use them with Siri and add them to your automation and scenes. Of course, for more advanced functions, such as the room mapping, you will continue to need the manufacturer's app, although it is expected that all this can continue and get home.

For now there are no more models or brands that have announced anything, however, this step can open many others to try to be included, in subsequent versions, to Homekit, since it is something that many users value when it comes to taking a robot, since they seek, as we said, to have everything automated from the same app, and that a model does have it and another no, could decant More expensive and important, they also join.
Now we just need that next Homepod and Siri are more advancedbeing able to directly ask for an automation of any accessory or device connected by Homekit and that it throws it without having to use the iPhone or open the house app, since, despite being simple, being able to do it directly by voice without the phone nearby, it would be wonderful, which we should soon see.
And you, what do you think of this type of products? Do you think we are accommodating a lot with all new technology, and that this should not be necessary? Or, on the contrary, would you love to see more products that can be Add to Homekit And have all your house, car, garage and other properties in the same app and be able to see from there everything you can do thanks to it, without having to be even close to those sites?
