The content of Draft:Untitled Apple smart home hub was merged into HomeView on 8 October 2026. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Draft:Untitled Apple smart home hub

@Cosmic840 Looks like we started the two drafts hours apart. Should we merge the two drafts together so we don't write about one thing in two separate articles? EvanTech10 (talk, contribs) ⚡ 21:47, 3 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

The following list is taken from Wikipedia:Did you know/Reviewer instructions#Review the article(s) because the DYK checklist template is annoyingly inflexible:

Have you checked...

... that each boldlinked article is new enough? moved to namespace on 13 October.
... that each boldlinked article is long enough? ~~Wikipedia:Prosesize gave me 804 words, which is less than the required 1500. I'll be checking this again in case I read something wrong. Also, iPhone Duo may not be safe due to this clause.~~ 5070 bytes, assume one byte = one character, and it's characters, not words, lol
... that each boldlinked article is cited to reliable sources, neutral, BLP-compliant, and copyvio-free?
... that each boldlinked article is presentable?
... that the hook is verified to a reliable source, and that the hook facts appear in the boldlinked article(s)?
... that the hook is under 200 characters?
... that the hook is likely to intrigue a reader with no special knowledge or interest into visiting the boldlinked article(s)?
... that any images are freely licensed, clear at a diminished size, and used in the article? Not applicable
... that the required number of QPQs have been submitted, and that they are valid reviews that have not been used elsewhere?
... that there are no other, more subjective issues?

All the hook facts and their citations appear in the article, and it is intriguing. Note that WP:CNET is outdated as it is has been purchased by Ziff Davis, so its reliability concerns may no longer be valid, plus, WIRED also says the same thing on the HomeView being an oversized Apple Watch. Nice job! No preference on hook. As for the date, I'd also request that this be kept till November 13 when the device launches (as with the iPhone Duo).

"homeOS" rumor

Latest comment: 25 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

The phrasing 'Apple was considered using the "homeOS" moniker' suggest this is what others assumed. More important would be an official statement from Apple that they did consider using the "homeOS" moniker.

And this phrasing: 'but was opted for the branding "HomeView software" instead' is just confusing. Was the choice made for them? ~2026-55583-90 (talk) 06:17, 17 October 2026 (UTC)Reply

Naming of product

Latest comment: 20 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Is there a reason "Apple HomeView" isn't mentioned in the article despite being its official name used in almost all marketing and product pages by Apple? I think most people do call the product just "HomeView", so that can remain the title and used elsewhere in the article, but I find it strange that the official name isn't in the article anywhere. Apple Vision Pro is also commonly called just "Vision Pro", and that article seems to use the official name throughout. Rileyslidey (talk) 23:45, 21 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
