I went upstairs (HomePods are downstairs) and a family member played a prank on me by saying "Hey Siri, play some rap music." When I came back, I was horrified to hear For The Night by Pop Smoke playing on my recently stereo paired HomePod minis, which is an explicit song. In the Apple Home app, I have the explicit content option switched off. Any ideas on why it did this? Thank you!

I’ll take a stab at it… because Apple software blows?

I have my two kids in my home, aged 7 and 8 and each have their own HomePod. I can’t toggle their “Allow Explicit Content” to off. I hit the toggle to turn it off and it immediately re-toggles itself to on.

Ahh would this be yet another Apple service/feature which doesn't work????

To add to: Siri, HomeKit, Handwashing Reminders, screen time across devices, kids screen time lockdown, Apple Music, Apple TV iTunes purchasing, UK dictation, auto-punctuation...



OP, I think [mention]Itinj24 [/mention] has hit the nail in the head unfortunately. Quite simply there is seemingly virtually nothing cloud-based from Apple that works as it should.
