Apple’s Own Home Security Camera Still Coming in 2027
Apple is in partnership with LG to create some of their smart home products. This includes indoor and outdoor security cameras, floodlight camera, and a smart deadbolt lock. While Apple is collaborating on these products, it is said that LG will release them under their brand name just like LG Ultrafine Display. Meanwhile, WhatsApp Apple Watch features are also expanding, giving Apple Watch users more ways to interact with WhatsApp.

The Apple Home Security Camera 2027 can also detect where a person is inside the home and trigger other Apple Home devices. For example, it can turn on the lights when someone enters a room. The camera can also detect when people leave the room.
Facial Recognition and Pet Detection
The Apple camera would also feature facial recognition to recognize people. The device could also be capable of recognizing pets in the home. The camera is likely to use a low frame rate and artificial intelligence to study the room without recording video at all times. The Apple September 9 Event also highlighted the company’s focus on new home and smart-device features.
The camera is believed to have been codenamed J450. Apple was first rumored to be developing the camera in August 2025. Apple was earlier also rumored to have developed a smart doorbell compatible with HomeKit.
