iOS 18.4 to bring Matter support for compatible robot vacuums


The first beta for iOS 18.4 adds support for controlling robot vacuums via Apple Home, with several high-profile models ready to support it.

AppleInsider was able to confirm that while initially not user-facing, the update does include the requisite version of Matter to support robotic vacuums. In addition to controlling the S10 via the Home app on an iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV, the Matter compatibility means it can also respond to voice commands. The Switchbot S10 can also be controlled by voice through HomePods or the Apple TV, and users can add the S10 and supported future robot vacuums to HomeKit automations and scenes.
