How to Update HomePod mini

Like your iPhone and Mac, the HomePod mini also receives updates on a regular schedule. However, unlike your iPhone or Mac, Apple doesn’t tell you when a new update is available, and all the updates happen in the background. 

While this is convenient, it also creates a blind spot. The auto-update function might get delayed or worse, a new update might cause issues. That’s why it’s a good idea to manually check for HomePod min updates occasionally to ensure that your device is up to date.

Manually Update HomePod mini

To update the HomePod mini, we will use the Home app on our iPhone. But first, ensure that your iPhone is running the latest version of iOS. To do that, go to Settings → General → Software Update and install any pending updates. 

1. Launch the Home app on your iPhone and tap the three-dot menu.

2. Tap on Home Settings and choose the Software Update option.

3. Enable the toggle for HomePod and the app will automatically download and install any pending updates for you.

If you have enrolled your iPhone in the Apple Beta program, your HomePod mini will also show an option to install beta software.
