When launching the Linksys app, you’ll see a new splash screen detailing support for Apple HomeKit. “Make your smart home more secure,” reads the pop up message. “Your Velop can now work with the Apple Home app to provide added security to your HomeKit accessories and the rest of your network,” adds the message.
