I still can't understand my my HomePod is constantly responding (uselessly, often just saying it can't send a message for me) when I am talking to my phone that is in my hand. It even happens when I have AirPods in my ears. How hard is it to have a priority listing for:
1: AirPods-linked devices go first when AirPods are present
2: closest device goes first in general
3: if there are multiple devices that could respond, and only some of them can do the requested task, one of the devices that can do the task should respond
- dimal 1y agoI had the same problem but in reverse. I’d want to play a song on the HomePod but my iPad sitting on the coffee table would start playing it on its tinny little speaker. The solution was to set Siri on the devices to not respond to “Siri”. To use Siri on the handheld devices I press and hold the side button until I get the ugly gradient border. It’s pretty bad that Apple released this feature in such a uselessly broken state.
