Apple Says HomeView Software Update Coming Next Month With Siri Fix

In her HomeView review shared in a free edition of her New Things newsletter today , tech journalist Joanna Stern said Siri AI once told her "I don't have a camera to see you," even though the device has a camera. Apple confirmed to Stern that it plans to release a software update in December with a fix for this issue. Siri AI also refused to open Stern's garage door or unlock her front door, even though the HomeView recognized her. Apple told her that the software update coming next month will enable this functionality. In the meantime, you can unlock door locks and garage doors by opening the Home app on the HomeView and tapping on-screen controls. "Today users recognized by HomeView can unlock security accessories, including door locks and garage doors, directly on their HomeView screen," an Apple spokesperson told Stern. "With a software update next month, this will extend to Siri AI, giving users more ways to manage security accessories once they've been recognized." HomeView launches this Friday, with U.S. pricing starting at $299. We also shared our own hands-on review video with our own impressions.

Apple's Johny Srouji Eyed to Replace Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang

Apple's chief hardware officer Johny Srouji is being considered as a potential successor to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang as the chipmaker's board prepares to remove its co-founder, according to Semafor . Citing a person familiar with the matter, the publication identified Srouji as one of the people under consideration for Nvidia's top job. It is unclear if Srouji has yet been approached or expressed interest in leaving Apple. Nvidia has reportedly hired an outside firm to identify potential replacements for Huang, according to Bloomberg . The succession discussions follow reports of multiple extramarital affairs involving Huang, including one with a woman reportedly suspected of spying for China. Some directors apparently favor appointing chief financial officer Colette Kress as interim CEO if Huang is removed. Srouji's emergence as a possible candidate comes just months after a substantial expansion of his responsibilities at Apple. In April, Apple promoted him from senior vice president of hardware technologies to chief hardware officer alongside the announcement that John Ternus would succeed Tim Cook as CEO. Srouji took over the hardware engineering organization previously led by Ternus while retaining oversight of Apple's custom chips and other hardware technologies. The promotion followed uncertainty about Srouji's future at Apple. In December 2025, Bloomberg 's Mark Gurman reported that Srouji had told Cook he was seriously considering leaving for another company. Cook was reportedly trying to retain him with increased compensation and broader responsibilities. Srouji subsequently told employees that he did not plan to leave "anytime soon." Srouji helped lead the Mac's transition to Apple silicon , and his hardware technologies organization also oversees areas including cellular modems, cameras, displays, sensors, and batteries. Srouji joined Apple in 2008 to lead development of the A4 chip after holding senior processor development and design roles at Intel and IBM. He was also reportedly considered for Intel's CEO position in 2019, although that role ultimately went to Bob Swan .
