🏠 Apple Releases HomePod Software 17.4 Update – Siri Gets Smarter! 🗣️
Apple has launched a new software update, version 17.4, for both the HomePod and HomePod mini. This release comes more than a month after the previous update.
Apple launches HomePod software 17.4 with music preference update.
Apple has just dropped a shiny new update for the HomePod and HomePod mini, introducing the exciting new HomePod Software 17.4. Hold on to your smart speakers, because Siri just got a whole lot smarter!
🎶 Siri Learns Your Preferences 🎵
With the latest HomePod Software 17.4 update, Siri can now get in tune with your preferred media service, eliminating the hassle of setting a third-party app as default or mentioning its name every time you want to play something.
🎙️ Apple puts it best: “This update enables Siri to learn your preferred media service, so you no longer need to include the name of the media app in your request.” 🎵🆒
🏡 HomePod Gets in Sync 📱
Apple has also made life easier by removing the Home app option that allowed users to select a default media service. Now the HomePod is finally in sync with the iPhone and iPad, which already offer the option to set a default music service for Siri.
📲 However, keep in mind that not all streaming music services are on board with this update. While the YouTube Music, Deezer, Pandora, TuneIn, and iHeartRadio apps are already on the HomePod bandwagon, Spotify is yet to jump on. Don’t worry, though! You can still play your favorite Spotify tunes on the HomePod by asking Siri, but it will route the music through your iPhone to the HomePod via AirPlay. 🎵📻
🚀 Performance and Stability Improvements 🏋️♂️
As if the Siri upgrade wasn’t enough, the HomePod 17.4 update also brings some performance and stability enhancements to keep your smart speaker running smoothly. 🏆
