HomePod Homepod/Homekit/Siri - A dumpster fire!

[AbSoluTc]

I have 12 homepods. 4 of them are OG and 9 are minis. I don't know what Apple has done but every day is a new or existing problem.

"One moment"
"Still working"
"I'm sorry, XXX is not in your library"
"I'm sorry, I can't find XXX in your library"
"Hmm.. Hmm.. Things are taking a bit to long"

Constantly! I used to be able to say "Hey Siri, play Cool Jazz". Siri would play it. On and off it either plays it or says "not available in your library". Of course it's not a playlist in my library, it's on Apple music!

Sometimes Siri just never responds. Says "HMM" then that's it.

What is going on? Seems to have gone downhill with 16. It's no longer reliable, constantly have to repeat yourself. So much so I want to throw it through a wall.

Apple hires the worst programmers they can find, and they don't supervise them very well. All of the OSes are pretty bad and really buggy these days. Very frustrating!

Just so you know, you’re not alone.

They should be ashamed for the products they’re releasing to the public.

I think we all feel your pain. Just works no longer applies and has been replaced with Just profits.

Fire being the operative word - HomePods still running hot here since 16.0 and popping. I’ve turned mine off. Late 14 thru 15 they have run cool, until the last few updates - clearly it’s a firmware issue.
