Adding a second voice to an Apple HomePod Mini My wife is neither a computer user nor a cell phone caller; we are both advanced seniors who do not text. Our HomePod Mini is set up with my voice to operate NanoLeaf smart bulbs in our bedroom. We cannot as yet add her voice, as she has no Apple ID. If we were using either Google or Amazon comparable smart speakers, there would be no problem, as a separate ID would not be necessary to add a second persson's voice. Is there a workaround that would enable her to register her voice, or must I replace my HomePod with a comparable Google or Amazon device? Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

HomePod Setting up Voice Profile Hi, I can't seem to get the HomePod to recognize more than one voice. Whoever turns on "recognize my voice" first will work, and any after will not. If my wife does hers first, it recognizes her but also says "I'm setting up a voice profile" and never seems to finish. Could hers be getting stuck for some reason getting her voice set up and that's why it won't recognize us both?
