Change HomePod “Update”

How do you change the update on the HomePod?


It shows the weather and plays news, but I want it to read my calendar events and play podcasts instead of news.

It should do this:

Say “Hey Siri, what’s my update?” Siri will tell you about your weather, news, reminders, calendar events, and more.

To play podcasts would be under a different function, you would need to ask it to play your podcasts


It can’t be customized at this time as far as I know, future updates will add enhanced settings.
