Hi Jeremy - thanks so much for your reply. I have all the settings on my HomePod set up as the linked article describes. I think the problem may have something to do with my iCloud calendar not populating with the same information as my iPhone calendar app, or my Mac's calendar app. Both the iPhone and my MacBook have the correct calendar info, but my iCloud calendar (which I reviewed on iCloud.com) is blank. All my devices, and my iCloud settings, are logged in to my same iCloud account, which is *****@ hotmail.com. Before I upgraded to iOS12, my HomePod was reading my calendars correctly; after upgrading, it isn't. That's the only thing that is different. I appreciate any help you may be able to provide.
