In the remodeled Home app in iOS/iPadOS 16, Apple seems to have removed support for iPad as Home Hub. In iOS 15, Apple allowed users to designate Apple TV, HomePod, and iPad as Home Hubs, but in the iOS 16 beta, only Apple TV and HomePod are supported.
Despite this change, it should be noted that iPadOS 16 beta 1 still allows you to designate an iPad as a Home Hub. However, given Apple's iOS 16 marketing webpage and the interface descriptions in iPadOS 16, it's likely that this feature will be removed in a later version of the software.
Apple has yet to explain why the iPad was removed from the list of compatible Home Hub devices in iOS 16, but it may have something to do with Apple's announcement that HomeKit will support the upcoming Matter cross-platform compatible smart home standard.
Matter will allow HomeKit users to integrate more categories of IoT devices than ever before into their smart homes and control them through the Home app and using Siri. Matter will be released later this year, most likely when iOS 16 is officially released to the public in the fall.
The so-called Home Hub is the control center of your smart home. The HomeKit framework allows you to remotely control compatible smart home devices, but some features (such as location-based automation) require a designated Home Hub, which will remain powered and connected in your home when you are away.
With Home Hub, some thermostats can use virtual geographic boundaries (geofencing) to change the temperature to a more economical temperature when you're away from home. Home Hub also allows you to use Siri to trigger actions when you're away from home.
