Apple’s updated Home app architecture becomes mandatory today, as it is required for Matter support and compatibility with certain types of accessories.

As of today, Apple‘s updated Home app, featuring a “new architecture”, becomes mandatory for all users. This change is driven by the need for support of Matter, a smart home standard, as well as compatibility with certain types of accessories.

The updated Home app is designed to provide a more seamless and integrated experience for users, particularly those with Matter-enabled devices. By making this update mandatory, Apple aims to ensure that all users can take advantage of the latest features and functionality, including support for Matter accessories.

The impact of this change is that users will no longer be able to use the previous version of the Home app, and will need to update to the latest version in order to continue using their smart home devices. As the smart home ecosystem continues to evolve, Apple‘s updated Home app is likely to play a key role in shaping the user experience, and this mandatory update is an important step in that process.
