According to the latest reports, Apple is working on a smart doorbell and lock system with Face ID. The smart home doorbell might be equipped with Apple's rumored Wi-Fi chip, which is said to have Secure Enclave to protect user data. The device is still in the development stages and is likely to hit the market by the end of 2025.

Along with selling security cameras, Apple is also allegedly developing a smart doorbell with advanced facial features that wirelessly connects to a deadbolt lock. Users with the doorbell can gain entry by scanning their faces, similar to FaceID on iPhones.

Apple is reportedly developing a smart doorbell with Face ID and a strong focus on privacy, aiming to compete with Amazon's Ring by leveraging its HomeKit ecosystem and secure iCloud storage.

The rumored smart doorbell would take Apple’s Face ID tech beyond phones and iPads. It’s designed to scan faces and work with third-party deadbolts, unlocking your door automatically for approved residents. Think of it as Face ID for your home where you just walk up, get recognized, and step inside.

The new smart doorbell could work with existing third-party HomeKit smart locks, allowing seamless integration for users already within Apple's ecosystem. Alternatively, Apple may partner with a smart lock manufacturer to offer a complete system at launch.
