Hello Robxxxxyz,


Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

If we understand your post correctly, you've recently moved and now your HomePod Mini won't connect. We'd like to help!


The article that you came from, If you can't set up HomePod, is a great resource for the issue you're experiencing.


"Check the Home app

If you already have HomeKit accessories or scenes, follow these steps:

  • Make sure that the device you're using to set up HomePod is the one you used to set up the Home.
  • Open the Home app on your iOS or iPadOS device and check that you see your accessories and scenes. If you see a message that says loading accessories and scenes, wait for the Home app to finish loading. If the Home app stays in a loading state for 30 minutes or longer, you should see an option to erase and reset the Home app. If you reset the Home app, you’ll need to set up your HomeKit accessories and scenes again."


Another great resource for this issue is this article: If HomePod isn't responding


Let us know if you have any questions.

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Take care!
