Hi. The HomePod doesn’t support multiple timers. You cannot pair it to your
phone either. You can do this with the Amazon Echo. This HomePod has been
rushed into the market and it’s cost Apple around £250 to assemble and they
can’t price it less than what it is right now. I’m happy with my Echos
Thanks for the response. Just to clarify, I meant I want to be able to add
calendar events, or move them around. As to timers, I'd want named timers, and

and less audio perfection, so I need Siri to at least handle multiple users'

Hello Everyone,
I was really considering buying a HOmePod. However, as I am not subscribed
to Apple Music nor am I going to subscribe anytime soon, I was hoping that
