Hi, Did anyone succeed in connection the HomePod to the Homey? HomeyKit doesn’t find the device ☹ René ---

No Unfortunately. I am also still looking for a solution to make Homey’s speech flow through the Homepods. ---

HomeyKit isn’t supposed to find it: the Homepod is a Homekit-enabled device, and HomeyKit turns Homey into such a device as well (but only in one direction: it exposes Homey devices to iOS, not the other way around; it _doesn’t_ expose other HomeKit devices _to_ Homey). There is no app that can provide that sort of service. ---

Me too. I was trying to do something with Shortcuts. Although HomePods still don’t have Dutch Siri, so communication is difficult (if your iPhone is Dutch). I though, if you can get a http get thing back to Shortcuts, you could make some things there. But my knowledge of Shortcuts is too little. ---

The only thing I wanna do is turning it off or start a specific radio station in the morning when pushing a button. Nothing fancy but cannot do it ---

I use Apple Music. I that case it is possible when you use Siri Shortcuts with Homey to start/stop music with a flow in Homey (Album, track, playlist, radio station.) ---

Please have a look into this tutorial: > [@\[TUTORIAL\] Using Siri/Shortcuts for activating flows (with pics!)](https://community.homey.app/t/tutorial-using-siri-shortcuts-for-activating-flows-with-pics/7473): > > Lately I’ve been busy figuring out how to make Siri work for activating Homey flows. I think that’s the quickest way for me to activate flows. For me as a total noob it was quite hard to figure it out, so I thought maybe a tutorial would help other people to make it work. Thanks to @robertklep, @Erik, @Rocodamelshekima and @OetAelse for helping me out in the first place. Make sure to install HTTP request flow cards ([https://apps.athom.com/app/com.internet](https://apps.athom.com/app/com.internet)) Download Shortcuts/Opdrachten from t… I think this will help you. ---

At the moment I do not have any flows starting music on my HomePod. Flow now it is only possible to make a Siri Shortcut to start Music on your HomePod. You can start a web request with Siri Shortcuts to trigger or start a flow in Homey. A possible solution to start music on your HomePod is that you create a virtual button in Homey and add this button to HomeKit. Create a scene in Homekit when this button is triggered and add your HomePods to it. When you add the HomePods you can select what type of music you want to play. ---

For anyone else finding this old thread, there is now an app that nicely integrates HomePods via the free open source Music Assistant which you run either stand-alone or as an app on a Home Assistant instance. Enables flow cards for announcements via HomePods, doorbell chimes and controlling music, radio, podcasts and more. For me this is pretty much the Holy Grail of HomePod integration with Homey. > **[Music Assistant | Homey](https://homey.app/en-us/app/com.cyrilhendriks.musicassistant/Music-Assistant/)** > > Manage all your smart speakers with Music Assistant and Homey.
