Note: tvOS 27 drops support for two Apple TV models, so your hardware may not be supported. HomePod 27 retains support for all existing HomePod models.<\/p>\n

tvOS 27 and HomePod 27 currently don\u2019t include one major tentpole feature that\u2019s rumored: Siri AI. That\u2019s because Siri AI will likely require more powerful hardware expected to launch this fall.<\/p>\n
