    HomePod‌‌‌‌‌‌ software is installed automatically on the ‌‌‌‌‌‌HomePod‌‌ unless the feature is disabled‌‌‌‌. To manually update the HomePod or HomePod mini, you can follow these steps:

    • Open up the Home app.
    • Tap on the home icon in the upper left corner of the display.
    • If you have only one home set up, this will take you directly to settings, so skip directly to Step 5. In case you have multiple homes, tap “Home Settings” on the sheet that pops up.
    • Select your desired home.
    • Scroll down to “Software Update.”
    • Pull down from the top of the iPhone or iPad screen to check for an update.
