Homepod Mini doesn't connect to phone

I have done all the steps outlined on all the other threads...

reset homepod...reset iPhone... new outlet...made sure they are on the same wifi network....confirmed software updates....reset WiFi router.

Occasionally resetting the home pod and pairing it to my

phone will result in being able to play music from my iPhone to the home pod

but after a few hours it stops playing and I can no longer connect to the home

pod from my phone

HomePod will not connect to iPhone I had just bought a HomePod. I set it up and connected it to Wi-Fi. When I turn it on it plays random music and it won’t play the music from my phone. I thought it would easily connect to my phone but it doesn’t. It keeps saying pairing was unsuccessful. Is there something else I need to do?

HomePod never successfully connects to HomeKit HomePod has never successfully connected to my HomeKit. I can't use my iPhone top choose music I want it to play. When prompted to find my iPhone it says it is not on the same network, but it is. I can only ask it to do things which most of the time it won't do. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

HomePod mini given to new owner: different phone, different network -- no way to connect, or reset HomePod mini was set up with iPhone A and Network A in room A; it has been given to a different user with iPhone B and network B and room B. The HomePod mini does not responded when iPhone is brought near it. Voice says I'm having trouble connecting to the network, try the Home App. There is no HomePod on the App (new phone;) and clicking + says bring phone close to HomePod, --which does not respond. No way i can find to re-set. The non-removable cord form HomePod has a USB-C at the active end, which my computers do not have the female for. My one USB-C to USB adapter does not light up the HomePod Any way to re-set by holding buttons, or something simple?
