Siri Timer

My HomePod won’t set a timer anymore when I ask Siri to set a timer. Any help with this would be great. Thank you!

HomePod mini issue with setting timers HomePod mini will not do a timer. When I say hey Siri set a 5 minute timer she replies you already have a timer by that name. She does this for all times I say. I’ve asked Siri to list all my timers and to clear all my timers, she replies to both these requests with you have no timers set. I can’t see the HomePod mini in the Home App but it does control my lamp switch with no issues and plays music just fine.

HomePod Mini Timer not working I’m running 15.5.1 on HomePod minis, and the timer quit working on them a few days ago. Others I see had this same problem last year. You can set a timer, which Siri will confirm, but then there’s no record of it and timer won’t go off. When you ask Siri to check on timer, it says there’s no timer set. ive put in a bug report, but thought I’d check here to see if a solution worked for people that have this same problem.

HomePod timers not working after 15.4 Since 15.4 I can't get timers to work on my HomePods (classic and mini). I say, "Hey siri, set a timer for five minutes." It waits, then eventually siri says it took too long or it "I didn't hear back". If I try to set a timer via the Home app, I add the timer and click Start, but the new timer doesn't appear in the timers list. Anyone else seeing this?

What command are you using? "Hey Siri, set a timer for X minutes" always seems to work for me. Power cycle the device and see if that helps.
