Homepod can't determine Home location Hi, I was trying to set Arrive/Leave home automation on my Homepod but it doesn't work properly. If I set up automation for me based on the exact address I type in, the blue circle appears on map determining the radius of automation for this location and everything works fine when I lease/arrive . When I add another person for this automation, Homekit says "Adding other people will change the location of this automation to My Home". Setting up "My Home" as default location doesn't refer to any point on map and obviously the Automation stops working. I've already added "My Home" location in my Contact card and Apple Maps but it doesn't help. Homepod/Homekit just can't determine "My Home" as a location on map and can't trigger Automation. Any thoughts how to fix it? Thanks!

HomePod & HomePod Mini location services not working My 2 HomePods and 1 HomePod Mini all suddenly stopped using my location data. For example, if I ask what the weather is today, it responds with “The weather where?” if I ask how long it will take to get to a particular destination, it asks me to switch on location services, even though the location option *is* switched on I have reset my wifi router, updated the HomePod software (only 1 needed updating to the latest version, the other two had already done it automatically), and done a full unplug and reset. It works for about 20 minutes, then forgets again and asks me to switch on location services. When I check the setting, it is already in. Toggling it on and off doesn’t help. Any ideas? I see that other people have experienced this, which is why I followed the steps they took, but many of them could not resolve the problem either and there seems to be no further suggestions offered to them.

HomePod and Location Services HomePod keeps saying it can't find its location, but it's connected to WiFi and my Apple devices, all of which have Location Services turned ON. When I ask about the time or weather, why does it say it can't find my location?

Hello,

Is Location Services enabled on your iPhone?
