The intention of this type of technology such as virtual assistants hidden inside smart speakers is precisely that of make life a lot easier for us at home, right? Well, the real day-to-day operation of this type of product remains to be seen, but of course the announced functions are quite attractive.
We talk about some of the most striking features of the HomePod, the first that it will not be restricted to a single user, it will be able to identify different inhabitants of the home. The second is that obviously we will be able to use it hands-free to start and continue a call at home, the perfect FaceTime companion.
Already in the press release the Cupertino company had hinted at these capabilities of its famous smart speaker, it is not for less in the prices that are handled. According to the documentation sent to the Apple Store and filtered by Gulherme Rambo, all users will be able to initiate and continue calls directly from the HonePod, and it is that the Genius will have to get up-to-date regarding the capabilities of this new product from the company in order to advise users in the best conditions. We did not expect less, actually, as I have already commented in the header, it can become a good facetime accompliceToo bad it doesn't include a small screen.
In another vein, the question arises about the possibility that Apple's HomePod is accessible to several users, something with great logic considering that in family homes restricting the product to a single inhabitant would be a lousy commercial move. Nevertheless, It is confirmed that the HomePod will be able to identify the different users and obey their orders, we remember that this is a capacity that Siri already has in its integrated version for iOS and that it also works with AirPods, it could not be missing from the HomePod obviously. So, everyone can ask Siri through HomePod what the weather is like or when FC Barcelona plays the next Cup match.
