Siri on HomePod can’t search safari

When I ask Siri to search something on my phone she can show me safari results but on my HomePod she says that she’s not unable to search the web. Is this an error or is she not able to do that at all?

Homepod mini not running Siri shortcuts and have some display bugs Hello, I want to talk about two problems i found today with my Homepod Mini (Thats my first day with it). 1. The Siri on my phone activates Siri shortcuts without problems but when I ask my homepod to activate shortcut, with the same command(I also tried different ones) the homepod says : - the phone and the homepod are not connected to the same network... -cant find the shortcut -install Shortcut app on your phone (i have it already installed long ago and fully updated) . 2 Somehow after changing homepod settings in home app, or checking for updates for the homepod, after that or a couple more actions in the settings, the homepod stops displaying Siri colors and animations, it only shows white color and when i activate Siri, the display becomes black, thats very strange. Thats all!

Siri “failed” to update HomePod mini audio as part of HomeKit scene I have had a HomePod for a few years, and for multiple HomeKit scenes I’ve set my HomePod audio to “pause” - such as when the last person leaves the home, or when we start the “goodnight” scene. Recently, I added two HomePod minis to our setup. I set the HomePod minis to also “pause” in those same scenes. But every time I ask Siri to set the scene, I get a response that “I tried, but the media in your [‘Reading’] scene is not available.” Tapping the scene in Home.app does change my lights, but the tile gets updated with a “Failed” on it. Do I need to set my HomePod minis up in some other manner? Is this a bug? Something else?

Not able to do so. There is no screen to present the results, which would be presumably too difficult to summarise for voice.
