Bloomberg's Mark Gurman reported that Apple was in the early stages of developing a smart home doorbell and lock system

A known Apple leaker has shared a series of veiled hints about Apple's rumored smart doorbell, and it may be further evidence for reverse charging coming to iPhones.

A new leak claims Apple’s smart doorbell will have MagSafe compatibility This could allow it to be wirelessly recharged, but there are few details The doorbell is also expected to feature Face ID security There are several great ways you can use Face ID to improve your security,

After teasing AirTag 2 release date, a leaker hints at a new Apple product in the works: a MagSafe-compatible Face ID doorbell.

It’s a fascinating idea, considering that even Apple’s newest iPhone 16e lacks MagSafe charging. It’s also not entirely clear what the point would be to putting a ring of magnets on a doorbell.

In addition to Face ID facial recognition, another Apple technology could play a central role in Apple's allegedly planned first front doorbell. New rumors now deal with the question of charging the mobile device, which apparently does not necessarily need its own power cable as a power supply.

Originally designed as a safety feature for MacBook charging cables, MagSafe is a magnetic technology that enables Apple devices, such as iPhones, to be wirelessly charged. If Kosutami’s claim is accurate, this suggests Apple’s smart doorbell could also be recharged through this method.
