In June 2014, Apple released the HomeKit platform. HomeKit platform is a part of iOS8. Users can use Siri voice function to control and manage smart door locks, thermostats, smoke detectors, smart appliances and other devices in the home. However, Apple does not have smart home hardware. All hardware is provided by third-party partners such as iDevtces, Marvel, and Philips. These manufacturers can interact on the iOS operating system, and their home hardware can be directly connected.
