Apple has begun developing a new range of 'second-party' smart home accessories and is expanding its partnerships. Following the earlier collaboration with LG, Schneider has now been identified as an official partner. This indicates Apple's serious commitment to further expanding its ecosystem for smart home products.

The new devices will feature exclusive connections and be more deeply integrated into Apple Home, promising an enhanced user experience. Through these strategic collaborations, Apple can make its offering of smart home products more attractive and strengthen their functionality.
