Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I have noticed that after using my iphone 12 to control music on my homepod mini, my volume buttons won't work on any application (phone, netflix...). They will only control the homepod mini even if this one is not playing.
In order to get the buttons back I need to restart the iphone.
Is ther a fix?
Thanks
Well now I have say the update did NOT solve the problem.
Unfortunately it happened again yesterday.
As soon as you use the iPhone to control the Homepod it swithches the volume control buttons of the iPhone to control the Homepods and it never comes back to controlling the iPhone 😤
Thanks !
New try, now it works perfectly, I can change HomePod volume also with iPhone buttons.
When I come back on iPhone, volume can be changed too 🤘
Same problem here too
this is really bothering me
Solved:
Remove all homepods from home app
reboot phone. I got volume control on my device back.
Then add homepods back into app
I am having the same issue after using my iPhone 12 Pro Max to control the Apple TV (of course we lost the tiny remote). The only way I can get volume control back is to restart my phone.
I fixed this by first unplugging your homepod, then restarting iphone.
I should work after.
Agreed - this isn’t a silly, inconsequential little bug. Anything that leads to having to restart the device to restore functionality is pretty ‘game-breaking’, in my opinion.
This is a joke I still have the same issues with my HomePod mini. The only way to fix this is to reset your phone :/
Is there still no solution to this other than restarting the phone?
July 2021 and they still haven’t fixed this. It’s so annoying!
Same condition. It is very annoying. Is there any method to fix it?
Great news! It’s fixed on iOS 14.7
I can confirm it now seems to be fixed on iOS 14.7. Haven’t had a single issue since updating and it feels amazing to have my phone volume control back in my control!
