Apple is reportedly working on a revolutionary smart doorbell with Face ID. According to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg, the new innovation will let users unlock doors without much effort-just look at it. The feature would be similar to the one found on the iPhone, hence easy and intuitive to use.
Advanced Features for Increased Security
The doorbell will have a camera with a Secure Enclave chip that is designed to securely process and store Face ID data. But shockingly, this device may not be exclusively an Apple ecosystem device. Apple is reportedly working on integrating the doorbell with third-party devices, which could accelerate its release to market. This move would put Apple in a leading position within smart home technology.
Furthering the Smart Home Vision
It also comes at a time when Apple pursues a bigger smart home strategy. It is jettisoning the plans to build a car; instead, it has set a greater focus into automation for a house. Already, reports have shown the company is working on a smart display and some innovative addition for your TV. All of them will make perfect fit in an integrated and intelligent home environment.
Likely Release Date
While the idea is exciting, it is very unlikely that smart doorbells will hit the market before late 2025. This should give Apple ample time to revise its design and functionality until it’s top-notch for their consumers.
With this novelty, Apple once again moves the boundaries of convenience and security, keeping up in the tech race.
