Hey krukgarb,


If we understand correctly, you want to know if someone can use a HomePod with an android device. We would recommend you read these articles for more information. The HomePod has Siri on it separate from Siri on an iPhone. Even if you do not have an iPhone you can still use Hey Siri on the HomePod.


Set up and use HomePod


If HomePod isn't responding


Please don't hesitate to let us know if the steps resolved your issue or if you need additional assistance.


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. Have a good one.

Hi krukgarb,


Thanks for the update. To send an invitation you would need to send it to an Apple ID and if they are an Android user they may not have one to send the invitation to. If you sent an invitation, the invitation would need to be accepted by an iOS or Apple TV device.


"On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  1. Open the Home app and tap  in the upper-left corner. If you have multiple homes set up in the Home app, tap Home Settings, then tap the Home that you want to invite someone to.
  2. Under People, tap Invite.
  3. Enter the person's Apple ID that they use with iCloud.
  4. Tap Send Invite."


Share control of your home


"Ask the invitee to do one of the following:

    • In the notification: (iOS or iPadOS device) Tap Accept.
    • In the Home app: (iOS or iPadOS device) Tap , tap Home Settings, then tap their name.
    • On Apple TV: Tap Show Me on Apple TV, then turn on one or more Apple TVs."


Allow others to control accessories in your home


Cheers.
