Apple is coming for Google Home, and LG could help it get there

TL;DR Apple has reportedly partnered with LG to build a much broader smart home lineup, including a video doorbell, smart lock, thermostat, cameras, and a floodlight camera. The products will carry LG branding, but Apple reportedly helped shape their design, features, and engineering as part of its wider smart home reboot. Apple’s new smart home hub is expected on October 13, but the LG-made accessories are reportedly still at least a few months away.
