New ‘HomePad’ product gets fresh launch timing update (Spring 2026 due to Siri delays)


Apple’s new ‘HomePad’ product has reportedly been subject to multiple internal delays, but we just got an update on when to expect it.

If you’re interested in Apple’s smart home products, one of the most highly anticipated debuts is a brand new ‘HomePad,’ and this cross between an iPad and HomePod just got a launch timing update via Bloomberg. Originally planned for March of this year, the device was delayed indefinitely due to its reliance on new Siri voice assistant features that the company postponed. As a result, while Apple could have chosen to ship the HomePad, and add those features via a software update later, Gurman doubted that would happen.
