nice thought; but does anyone else have a use for them either?
I never understood what the "voice assistant" hype was about, the advertised benefits looked ... non beneficial; the examples I saw in peoples homes didn't appear to work when they tried to use them.
Was it worth that much money and effort to have microphones in people's houses?
- PaulHoule 4y agoIt is nice to have a way to play music when you are doing the dishes. I think I bought one when they first came out, then I got three for free when I bought other things.
- crazygringo 4y agoYup. Great in kitchens. Sets timers and gives you measurement conversions too when your hands are sticky.

In a household full of kids and an all-around crazy schedule, having HomePods scattered amidst my house has proven useful; beyond just being great speakers for music. I use them for everything from adding/completing items on my Reminders list. Controlling the home (lights, timers, etc.). Asking questions (this one is very hit/miss with Siri, but she's getting a lot better). And reading/sending messages. Is it absolutely necessary? No. But when you're lugging around little ones throughout the house, fixing lunches, dinner, etc. -- they can make life a little easier. Sometimes.
