Previously, Gurman had indicated that the device could potentially be released as early as March 2025. The device is expected to feature a six-inch touchscreen mounted on the wall, enabling users to make video calls, manage smart home devices, and interact with the device primarily through voice commands.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Notwithstanding the delay, Apple has commenced an internal testing program, where employees are allowed to take the device home to provide feedback, as reported.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/03\/09\/apples-smart-home-hub-reportedly-delayed-by-siri-challenges\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source Link<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week, Apple revealed that the enhanced, &#8220;more personalized&#8221; version of Siri, which was initially announced last year, will not be released on schedule.
