- nerdjon 4y agoMaybe it was U1? There are too many apple chips that it is easy to confuse now. I can't find anything on the page saying exactly which chip it is. Regardless it was a chip that was missing from the original but is in the Mini that made this feature work. That would be awesome, I would love some feature that it could actually be room aware and knowing where devices are in that space instead of just relative to your phone when searching for an AirTag. But I imagine that would likely require a workflow of mapping your space with your phone first.
- adrr 4y agoYou would just name your homepods and ask siri where your phone is and it would reply "10ft away from you kitchen homepod".
- nerdjon 4y agoWhat if your HomePod is against a wall and shares a wall with another room? I could see that confusing in my place where I have 2 HomePods in my office against a wall that is shared with my living room. Not discounting the idea, but without mapping I just see there being extra confusion.
