Play a radio station on HomePod with Siri
Quick answer
"Play [station name]" and HomePod tunes to that live radio station via Apple Music's radio or a supported provider. Try a call sign, frequency, or show name. Say "play Apple Music 1" for Apple's own stations, or name a local station you listen to.
Say this
“Play KCRW”
How it works
- 01Say "Hey Siri" to your HomePod
- 02Say "play [station name or frequency]"
- 03Adjust with "turn it up" or "next station" where supported

If Siri doesn't get it
If a station isn't found, say its full name or city. Some local stations need a streaming provider; Apple Music covers its own radio stations.
