Hello. I'm new to HomePod and having difficulty using the transfer to HomePod feature. I followed instructions, turned on Transfer to HomePod in settings and HomePod and iPhone are on same network. When listening on my iPhone and want to transfer to Mini I move the phone close to the top of the Mini and nada. Guidance welcome.
 
Have you got Bluetooth turned on? Both devices up to date and on the same wifi network?

Which iPhone are you using? I thought this feature was using ultra wide band. If the iPhone don't have that i don't think it will work. But at the same time my Og Homepods do not have UWB and the transfer still works. Not as nice as the minis but still works.

Hello. I reset Mini and confirmed that it was on same network as my iPhone. It worked! Thanks!! My router has 2 networks, 2.4 and 5. When I originally set-up mini it automatically connected to the 2.4. I use 5 on my phone. The reset allowed me to confirm the network I wanted.
