HomePod mini

Nothing short of amazing. Jam-packed with innovation, HomePod mini delivers unexpectedly big sound for a speaker of its size. At just under 8.5 centimetres tall, it takes up almost no space yet fills the entire room with rich 360-degree audio that sounds amazing from every angle. 

Boundary-pushing computational audio creates the full, detailed tones of a much larger speaker — and HomePod mini turns it up without missing your voice commands.

HomePod mini is designed to fit anywhere in the house.Its elegant shape is wrapped in a perfectly seamless mesh fabric that’s virtually transparent to the sound passing through it. A backlit touch surface on the top provides quick control.

With multiple HomePod mini speakers placed around the house, you can have a connected sound system for your whole home.1 Ask Siri to play one song everywhere or, just as easily, a different song in each room. And HomePod mini works with HomePod for multiroom audio and features like Intercom.

If you want to take the amazing sound experience of HomePod mini even further, you can create a stereo pair.Two HomePod mini speakers paired in the same room create left and right channels for an immersive sound stage.

HomePod mini works effortlessly with your Apple devices.

Pick up an incoming call from your iPhone, listen to music on your Mac or upgrade your TV experience by taking the sound from your Apple TV to the next level — they all connect to HomePod mini.

If you’re enjoying music or a podcast and have to head out, you can continue to listen on your iPhone without missing a beat. Hand it off by simply bringing your iPhone close to HomePod mini. And coming soon, you’ll experience the feeling of your iPhone and HomePod mini connecting virtually as the sound transfers.

Also coming soon are personalised listening suggestions that will automatically appear on your iPhone when you hold it next to HomePod mini. You’ll have instant control at your fingertips without having to unlock your iPhone.

Siri does everything like there’s nothing to it.

Siri is your do-it-all intelligent assistant

that puts HomePod mini at the centre of your family’s activities. Whether you need a hand with a wide variety of everyday tasks, want easy control over your smart home accessories or simply want to hear your favourite song — just ask Siri.

Hey Siri, play some ’90s hip-hop

Listen to tracks by song, artist, album, playlist, genre or lyrics.4

Hey Siri, play Hamish & Andy

Listen to Apple Podcasts and radio stations.

Hey Siri, how many millilitres are in a cup?

Create lists and reminders. Siri will update them across all your devices.

hardware store to me?

Siri recognises you, him, her and them.

Siri can recognise the voices of up to six different family members on HomePod mini — and create a personalised experience for each person. So the music Dad hears when he asks for something he’d like is totally different from what the kids hear when they ask. And with Personal Requests, Siri can recognise a particular voice and relay that person’s information from iPhone apps like Messages, Calendar, Reminders and Contacts.

Intercom spreads the word. With more than one HomePod in the house, you can easily communicate with your family members by voice using Intercom. Ask Siri to send your message to the whole house or to individual rooms — and everyone can easily respond.

Hey Siri, intercom, On my way home, 
want me to pick anything up?

Intercom also works with your other Apple devices, so you can send and receive messages with CarPlay while you’re driving, with your AirPods during a workout or with your Apple Watch when you’re running errands.

Easy to connect. Simple to control.

Set up your smart home and stay connected from anywhere

Whether you already have a smart home or are buying your first smart device, getting set up — and staying connected from anywhere — is a breeze with the Home app and HomePod mini.

When you set up HomePod mini, it’s automatically added to the Home app, and with just your voice you can instantly control any of your HomeKit devices.

HomPod mini can also act as a home hub, letting you control your HomeKit accessories remotely. Wherever you go, you can see a live view from the front door, shut your garage, and lock or unlock the house through the Home app.

Looking to learn more about the benefits of a smart home? The Discover tab in the Home app is the best place to find out what’s possible, get recommendations on top-rated accessories that work with HomePod mini, and connect to the Apple Store app for additional details and effortless shopping.

A speaker that protects your right to privacy.

Privacy is essential — especially in your own home. HomePod mini is designed to keep your personal information safe and be a trusted assistant in your family’s everyday life.

HomePod mini only listens for “Hey Siri”

 — so you can speak freely knowing nothing you say is sent out of your home until you activate Siri with a touch or HomePod mini hears the magic words, “Hey Siri”.

When you ask Siri something, your request is associated with a random identifier, not your Apple ID.

With HomeKit Secure Video support, HomePod mini can analyse the feeds of your supported video cameras, detecting the presence of people and recognising familiar faces, pets and cars. All video processing is done on your device before it’s sent to iCloud with end-to-end encryption — so your recordings can only be seen by you and the people you share them with, not Apple.

HomePod mini works with your iPhone for requests like hearing your messages or notes, so they are completed on your device without revealing that information to Apple.
