Welcome back to Everything Apple Home.
There was no episode last week because I was over in Berlin covering IFA, but we’re back this week with plenty to talk about.
Apple’s September event has now taken place and, unfortunately, there was no new Apple Home hardware. Apple has also confirmed the iCloud+ requirements for its new Apple Intelligence camera features, and I’ve got a quick roundup of some of the best Apple Home devices I saw at IFA.
