My Question or Issue

When I stream music from iPhone to HomePod (with stereo pairing). The music works just fine for about 5 mins and it starts to stop sporadically. This issue is specific to just Spotify streaming to HomePod. I don't have issue playing music from Apple Music / Youtube to HomePod. I attempted to reset / upgrade firmware but nothing works.

Anyone has solution, please kindly advise.

Hi there @Amornwat,

Thanks for reaching out about this in the Community!

We'd recommend running a clean reinstallation of the app on your phone. Check out this guide for the relevant steps.

Also, try performing a factory reset on your HomePod device and check if you can update it to the latest firmware after that.

Let us know if that helped. Looking forward to your reply!
