Apple doesn’t care about HomePod? Discussion

I‘m a huge fan of HomePod, having 2 OGs hooked up to my Apple TV and multiple around the house.

However, as I often feedback to Apple about my experience I don’t know if they even read/care.

Their feedback site includes the latest models, but the form only lists firmware versions up to 16.5.

I have sent them feedback about it, bit as always didn’t get a response. Do you feel like they care? It’s not top priority to them, I get that.

Do you have any experiences with Apple answering feedback? The OS 18 update also seems very small.

I mean, all you need to do is try and use them to figure out that Apple doesn't care about them!

“Hey siri, what’s the time” “Sorry, there seems to be a problem with my connection”

It’s the fucking time Siri, every OS knows the time.

Oh and so help me god if Siri plays completely the wrong song one more time. It’s not even adjacent to what I asked for. Astonishingly bad far too often. My favourite is when I ask for a massively famous song and somehow get a version by another random artist.

Usually good. Very occasionally shit and very occasionally there is none because of an ISP issue. I would still expect to be able to set alarms and ask the time without the internet.
