New 13.2 Update Bricking Some HomePods [Update Pulled by Apple]

There is no public beta for the Apple Watch. Them allowing developers to use the beta makes sense because they need to build and test apps. Something that isn't done for HomePod.
If they’re such a joke why did you spend the money on 4 of them?
Asking for a friend.
Mine were not fine after the update. Siri was non-responsive or said she can't connect, hence why I did the reset. I imagine that this is the case for many people.
I mean, if you purchased it just for alarms, that was your first mistake.
Yes, the HomePods keep rebooting every few seconds, so if you long press it will turn red for a second before rebooting again to a white swirl. The thing reboots too quickly to perform the hard reset.
You bought a $350 alarm clock? To each their own I guess...
Why anyone would by a “smart” speaker that only plays what Apple allows you to play is beyond me. Lmfao
Did a hard reset by long pressing on the top. The problem is that they are rebooting every few seconds in an endless loop, so long pressing on top doesn't work because it reboots before it can reset.
Apple shouldn’t have to resolve issues if they did the job right the first time.
When people post stuff like this I always wonder if they feel better about themselves after.
I did; two of them. Worked great for cooking. Alarms haven’t worked in awhile though.
Why I went with Amazon echo, cheaper and I can even choose a default music player 🤷🏻♂️
I hope this mess costs Apple a ton of money so they start putting service ports on their devices again. It's absurd that they're making devices without a way to DFU them when updates go bad.
Haha good ol Apple and it’s quality updates...
My iPhone XR won’t update, it downloads the update but then won’t highlight the install button haha...
Every other device I own from other manufactures update perfectly fine, but Apple, by far the most expensive devices I own? Nah...
I think Apple have every year certainly for the last 4 or 5, managed to release updates that have bricked devices in one way or another?
