HomeCam, the popular HomeKit app for iOS and tvOS that allows you to view multiple video streams from your HomeKit cameras simultaneously, has received a nice update today on iOS. The update brings a new Apple Watch app, Siri Shortcut support, and more more.
Additionally, newly added support for Siri Shortcuts means you can now ask Siri to display any of the cameras you have in the HomeCam application.
The latest version of HomeCam also features a new and redesigned main list view with snapshot fallback support. This means that if a camera fails to load, you can still view a still snapshot of it. There’s also support for Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode authentication, speed improvements, and more.
Here’s a full summary of the new features added by HomeCam today:
