There are only two reasons why I still have a few Alexa devices in my home: - It can handle multiple named timers, which is really handy when cooking, something that HomePods with Siri can't do - It has a display version that I use as a clock in a few places If Apple would release a HomePod with an iPad mini taped to it, I'd immediately throw away all Alexa devices. I used to have a Google whatchamacallit I got on sale, but it had an insane false positive rate and connecting it to a non-google smart home is really tedious.
