you can do with your HomePod?

Personal Requests,
talk to Siri, and control
your smart home accessories.
First things first: the music.
Ask Siri to play
a specific song,
artist, playlist, or genre
from Apple Music.
You can even ask Siri to play
music based on activity or mood.
For example,
"Hey Siri, play
some party music."
Siri: Sure.
Here's a personalized station
of party songs.
♪ Music playing
Voiceover: You can also ask
Siri to switch
to your favorite podcasts,
or get the latest news update.
To use your iPhone
as your HomePod remote control,
open Apple Music
and tap the AirPlay icon
at the bottom of the screen.
From here,
tap the HomePod card
to control the music
with your iPhone.
[RINGTONE]
Is someone calling?
Use your HomePod
as a speakerphone.
Just answer on your iPhone,
tap the audio button,
and select your HomePod.
Woman: Hey,
we're on our way,
but with this rain
and this traffic,
looks like we're going
to be a little late.
Voiceover: Don't worry about it.
We'll see you when you get here.
Now, to end the call,
just tap the top.
Did she say something
about rain?
Siri on HomePod can answer
questions about weather,
traffic, and more.
Things like, "Hey Siri,
is it going to rain tonight?"
Siri: We'll see
some rain tonight,
but it will clear up later.
Voiceover: When your iPhone
and HomePod are connected
to the same Wi-Fi,
Siri can also handle
some personal requests,
like sending messages.
Hey Siri, text Caitlin,
"Are you still coming over?"
Siri: Your message
to Caitlin says,
"Are you still coming over?"

my alarm
and if you get a 
new message

it for you
Hey Siri,

Siri: I found your most recent
message from Caitlin:
"Is it OK that I invited
my cousin, my coworker,
and my soccer team?"
