HomePod Radio Stations in Australia

[lowkey]

I’ve had my HomePod for a few months. It used to play ABC Radio National when I said to Siri “hey Siri, play Radio National”.
Now the last week or so Siri has decided to respond with “making radio station based on the Nationals” and now just plays a station it’s invented with music from a band called the National.

WTF Siri? I want to smash this thing with a sledgehammer :lol:

Anyone in Australia having the same issue? Triple J still works fine.

Update 1- after about an hour Siri now gets it going by saying “say Siri, play RN”. Though it’s often says “now playing R’n’B”. God Siri is infuriating when it doesn’t work :lol:

Update 2- now asking Siri to play RN, it wants to play Guns’n’Roses.

Srsly

suggest you try saying “play the station radio national”.

They changed the siri commands recently I think

Yep this, i used to use Siri to play Radio X in the UK by saying "Play Radio X" which it did via Apple Music i think. Since i went to the iOS13 beta i have to say "Play radio station Radio X" to set it going now.

Thanks for the replies.

“Play the station Radio National” works!
