Perhaps this is a silly question.
I recently got a HomePod mini and I've noticed that when I've been steaming music on HomePod and look at the activity log on iPhone (under battery) the Music app has been active for the same length of time even though I haven't used Air Play.
Why is this? Have I set up HomePod mini wrongly?
iPhone SE, iOS 14
Hello mysapphirestar.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. If we are understanding correctly, you would like to know why the Music app displays as active while streaming music with HomePod mini. We will be glad to assist. You will see the Music app active while streaming because it is source of the music for your HomePod mini.
Check out this resource for more information on playing music on HomePod:

Cheers.
