MacRumors • • technology
Key Points:
- Apple’s new Apple Intelligence camera features in the Home app will require users to have an iCloud+ plan with at least 2TB of storage, as revealed in the macOS Golden Gate beta notes.
- The Home app in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27 Golden Gate can generate written summaries for motion alerts, group footage from multiple HomeKit Secure Video cameras, highlight noteworthy recordings, and support natural language search.
- While HomeKit Secure Video has always required a paid iCloud+ plan, the 2TB plan now additionally enables these advanced Apple Intelligence features and supports an unlimited number of cameras.
- The 2TB iCloud+ plan costs $9.99 per month and HomeKit Secure Video storage does not count against the user’s overall iCloud storage quota, leaving the full 2TB available for other data.
- Further details on the new Home app features in the upcoming OS versions are available in Apple’s official guide.
