Apple has reportedly co-developed smart-home accessories for LG. Leaked images show a smart lock, thermostat and temperature sensor.

The images were posted on X by the leaker pdfu. Bloomberg reported the previous day that the devices will launch under the LG brand.

Smart lock settings

The deadbolt has a rotating keypad for unlocking. Reported settings include a touchpad light ring, a left-door audio alarm and lock-sound volume; automatic unlocking is also supported.

The thermostat images show controls for a far-sight display, humidity display, brightness and language. The device also includes calibrated-temperature and temperature-offset options.

Bloomberg reported that the broader lineup may also include a video doorbell, indoor camera, outdoor camera and floodlight camera. The source provides no prices or exact shipping date.

Journalist Mark Gurman suggested that these accessories may ship later than the new Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini. Apple could still mention them during next week’s announcements, but that remains an expectation rather than a confirmed company plan.
