Nest Thermostat and new Homepod. Can I do this?

Hello,

I have just bought a Homepod, which is just amazing, and I love it. However, I have a Nest thermostat, for my central heating system.

Can I use for Homepod Siri to control Nest?

Thanks

HomePod not seeing a HomeKit accessory I have a HomePod (original) and last week I bought a new HomePod mini and an Eve. Room temperature accessory. The mini was easy (of course) to set up and the Eve was reasonably easy. But my HomePod (original) which is in the next room, doesn't "see" the Eve. When I ask Siri on the original HomePod what the room temperature is, she tells me that there is no temperature accessory connected. However, the HomePod mini reports the temperature fine. Is there some step I need to do in order for the original HomePod to see the Eve and be able to tell me the room temperature ? Thanking you advance and any guidance anyone can give me.

HomePod Mini temperature doesn't follow default of Farhenheit Recently purchased my first Homepod mini. When I ask Siri the weather the homepod mini always tells the temperature in Celsius. I have searched how to change the default and everything seems correct: iPhone settings (General/Language & Region) Region: United States, Temperature Unit: F Weather App: Opened and looking at the bottom to make sure the setting is in F Weather.com: Went to the website in Safari and made sure the settings for temperature unit is F Another solution I am finding from Apple Support is to ask the Homepod for the weather in Fahrenheit. I read that, eventually, Siri will learn I prefer Farhenheit. Days of asking for the temperature in Fahrenheit have not changed the Homepod. I start each day asking for the weather and Siri always starts with Celcius. Asking for Farhenheit doesn't change anything permanently. When I ask my Iphone, Siri answers with Farhenheit. When I ask my Imac, Siri answers with Farhenheit. Everywhere in my life (websites, computers, phones) the weather in Farhenheit and every setting I can find in my life has my region in the USA and my preferred temperature unit in Farhenheit.... Why doesn't the Homepod mini? Do I really have to ask the Homepod to tell me the weather in Farhenheit each time I ask? Really?? The Homepod mini is being returned if I cannot find a solution because this is very annoying. I have been told to go with a different wireless speaker manufacturer that allows for more customization, such as Alexa or the Echo.

HomePod “Weather for where?“ So I never used to get this “Weather for where?” question back from Siri on my HomePod when asking what the daily forecast or current outside temperature is. Was this feature change meant to be more inclusive of people who live in mobile homes, RVs, and fifth-wheels? Maybe we can get an option on the HomePod set up for “Mobile HomePod Mode” which will ALWAYS ask you where you are. What a great way to expand the HomePod target audience to encompass transient homeless vagrants who still want to enjoy the features of a HomePod, running on a portable power bank of course…
