Thanks. I googled it. Would like to see this come to the HomePod.

Don’t bother, get the HomePod mini instead

Danm, HomePod mini is cheap af. I am gonna buy that instead

Same features too!

Technically not all the same features but it will have the same sensors and the sound recognition feature.

The only sound it will recognize are smoke/carbon monoxide detector alarms unfortunately.

I think your right. I was hoping for baby crying at the very least maybe door bell as well.
But yeah even Apple’s press release state:
“With Sound Recognition* HomePod can listen for smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, and send a notification directly to the user’s iPhone if a sound is identified.”
- Sound Recognition will be available in a software update later this spring. Sound Recognition may detect smoke and carbon monoxide alarm sounds and send users notifications when recognized. Sound Recognition should not be relied upon in circumstances where users may be harmed or injured, or in high-risk or emergency situations. Sound Recognition requires the updated Home architecture, which will be available as a separate update in the Home app. It requires all Apple devices that access the home to be using the latest software.

Doesn't sound nearly as good though. I have 3 OG and 3 minis and the minis are okish. I would call the big ones good.

Now I am confused I just wanted a good HomePod.

I bought one of these yesterday, primarily as a speaker for when I’m in the shower and want to listen to YouTube videos. Is there anything else I should use it for that’s actually useful and not some gimmick?

I tell mine to play night cricket sounds when I go to bed so my rabbit may/does not get to bored in my studio.

Also jealous that you have a socket in your bathroom 🙄
Ubiquitous1984 t1_j6mru3r wrote
Haha I don’t! There is one just outside the bathroom (actually the en suite) so I can plug it in that socket and then put the device on the floor in the room (away from water!)
