HomeKit in iOS 9 is set to bring some major changes including remote control without Apple TV, custom event triggers, pre-defined scenes, and much more.First, HomeKit in iOS 9 will no longer require an Apple TV as a hub to control your HomeKit accessories. Remote access in iOS 9 now works over iCloud, and all traffic is encrypted. Vendors have access to this new protocol for free and Bluetooth LE accessories makers can also send notifications to your device. New in iOS 9 HomeKit is also the custom event trigger feature. In iOS 8, developers were limited to either time-based triggers or geo-fence triggers — that is, developers could only activate an accessories based on location or a time. Now developers can trigger certain scenes (activate or deactivate accessories) based on a set of different user activities. For instance, you can tell HomeKit to turn on all the lights when you get home after 7PM, but not if its before 7PM.Share Article:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Email,   Reddit,   Digg,   Delicious,   StumbleUponFollow iClarified:Facebook,   Twitter,   LinkedIn,   Google Plus,   Newsletter,   App Store,   YouTubeAdvertise Here
