New Siri's App Intents will make or break Apple's Home Hub

App Intents for Siri will make the upgraded digital assistant capable of handling considerably more tasks on a user's behalf, and will be essential to the success of Apple's future smart home hardware lineup.The HomeHub could be an extension of the HomePod, adding a large display to the design. The long-delayed overhaul of Siri will bring Apple's assistive tool up to speed with rivals after years of lagging behind, when it eventually turns up. Part of the changes will be to allow Siri to have more direct control over other apps that exist on the iPhone and other Apple hardware.In Sunday's 'Power On' newsletter for Bloomberg, Mark Gurman writes that App Intents will be an extremely powerful feature that the new Siri will use. It will allow for users to do a lot more with their voice than current Siri can perform. Rumor Score:
