Can my kids use a HomePod if they don't have phones? I want to get a HomePod so that my children can listen to music. They will want to be able to create and listen to playlists. It looks like enabling voice recognition for them requires that they have their own iOS devices — phones or iPads -- which they don't. Is there a way for them to use the HomePod for music if they don't own a device?

Adding a second voice to an Apple HomePod Mini My wife is neither a computer user nor a cell phone caller; we are both advanced seniors who do not text. Our HomePod Mini is set up with my voice to operate NanoLeaf smart bulbs in our bedroom. We cannot as yet add her voice, as she has no Apple ID. If we were using either Google or Amazon comparable smart speakers, there would be no problem, as a separate ID would not be necessary to add a second persson's voice. Is there a workaround that would enable her to register her voice, or must I replace my HomePod with a comparable Google or Amazon device? Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

Add recognised voice without apple id on HomePod I’d like my son to be able to use the Hey Siri function on my new HomePod mini, but it seems as I can only add someone with an Apple ID and as a 6 year old he doesn’t have one!
