In iOS 16.4, Apple would have offered all users to update the Homekit architecturehowever, because it did not bring news in terms of functions, and its stability was irregular, many decided to stay as they were, and if something works, why touch it?
Well, all these users could have a problem with the arrival of iOS 18.4, since Apple could force all of them to update to the most recent version, and not to do so, they would lose the options of the app, that is, they could not use their devices associated with Homekit, at least through this platform.
Homekit in iOS 18.4
iOS 19 could bring many changes in Apple Intelligence, Siri, and of course, Homekittrying that all home automation and intelligence suffer a change for better, and among these sections, we find the Native Apple app, called a Spanish house, which will need to be updated in a mandatory way before the exit of the next version of iOS.
As we said, 2 years ago we had this change, however, not being mandatory, many did not update, since there was no clear reason for it, something that will change, since rumors indicate that, not Do it before iOS 18.4we could suffer problems in the app, and that many of our devices associated with it do not react, which could lead to subsequent synchronization problems.
Many people, in 2022, when updating, had problems and lost devices that were already configured, having to repeat the entire process, which I took to many, to which everything worked well, to omit that update, however, everything seems resolved, and that is why they want to force us to it.
In the beta of iOS 18.4 the following can be read, which we can interpret in two ways:
The support for its current version of Apple Home will end soon. Update now to avoid interruptions with your accessories and automation.
That is, it could indicate that In the final version of iOS 18.4 there will be no support for Apple Home (house)or that there will still be, but that in the next patch they will take it away, so, whatever, we recommend doing it already, to avoid scares. It is true that updating is something fast, however, many people use homekit for even professionals, and arrive one day to the office, try to automate something you do every day, and that it does not work, it could trigger a problem, which could be avoided from now on.
And you, do you have homekit configured? The truth is that with all the changes that are coming in Ias, Siri, Homekit and Apple in general, you may begin to domote your home with this version is not a bad idea, surely in a few years everyone has it like that, so getting to know the system is a good option, don't you think? Leave us a comment with your opinion in this regard, and if you think you should change something of this native iOS app to realize really updating.
