HomeDeck turns Apple TV into a full-screen dashboard for Apple Home. Browse rooms, devices, scenes, sensors, climate information, security systems, and compatible cameras from the sofa. After inactivity, HomeDeck switches to Ambient Mode. We’re inviting TestFlight testers with a configured Apple Home and an Apple TV running tvOS 26 or later to help validate device compatibility, navigation, connection stability, camera support, and Ambient Mode.
I built HomeDeck to turn Apple TV into a dedicated dashboard for an Apple Home smart home. It brings rooms, accessories, scenes, sensors, climate information, security systems, and compatible cameras together on the biggest screen in the house. When nobody is interacting with it, HomeDeck transitions into Ambient Mode.
We’re currently looking for TestFlight participants with a configured Apple Home and an Apple TV running tvOS 26 or later.
I’d especially appreciate feedback on device compatibility, navigation, connection stability, camera support, and Ambient Mode. If you try it, please share what works well—and what breaks.
The Ambient Mode handoff after inactivity is such a thoughtful touch, it respects that the dashboard shouldn't be screaming for attention when nobody's looking. Love seeing an app built specifically around how people actually use Apple Home from the couch.
One thing I'd love to see is the ability to create custom layouts per room, so I can drag my most-used lights and sensors to the top while tucking away the ones I rarely touch. Right now every room shows everything in the same order, which gets noisy in bigger spaces. A saved layout per profile or per Apple TV user would also be great since my partner and I prioritize different devices.
Finally something useful for the big screen in the living room. I love how quickly you can flip through rooms and tap a scene without unlocking your phone, and the camera tiles feel snappy on my Apple TV.
The Ambient Mode timeout is such a thoughtful touch, turning the TV into something useful rather than a black mirror when you walk away. Really nice execution on making the Apple TV feel like a true HomeKit command center.
Would love to see a quick-access tile for the most-used scenes right on the home screen, maybe customizable order so I can jump to "Movie Night" or "Goodnight" without scrolling through rooms. Would make the whole thing feel much faster from the couch.
