Apple's HomeView may gain security camera features, code hints suggest

A Reddit user identified references to a security camera mode within HomeView 27.2 code, which Apple's smart home hub could support. The strings reportedly include options for motion detection, live streaming, and recording, along with privacy controls. A setup page mentions using HomeView as a security camera with HomeKit Secure Video. According to the findings, camera feeds would be viewable only by household members and would trigger an indicator light and sound whenever someone watches or recording begins. The details come from unofficial code discoveries, so Apple has not confirmed the feature.
