Update HomePod

HomePod and HomePod mini automatically install software updates by default. You can manually install updates in the Home app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

  1. Make sure that your device is updated to the latest version of iOS, iPadOS, or macOS.

  2. Open the Home app.

  3. Tap or click the More button, then Home Settings > Software Update.

  4. If there's a new update, select Update.

    Update Available appears below Automatic Updates on the Updates screen in the Home app.

  5. A white spinning light appears on the top of HomePod while it's updating. Keep your HomePod plugged in to power while it's updating.

If there isn't a new update, you can select HomePod to turn on automatic updates and get the latest software automatically when it's available. Software Update also tells you if your HomePod is already up to date, and shows you the installed HomePod software.
