Send an Intercom message with Siri
Quick answer
"Intercom: dinner's ready" and HomePod records your message and plays it on every HomePod and supported device around the house, and on family members' iPhones, Watches, and AirPods. Reply by saying "intercom" back. A simple house-wide announcement without shouting up the stairs.
Say this
“Intercom: dinner's ready”
How it works
- 01Say "Hey Siri" to your HomePod
- 02Say "intercom" followed by your message
- 03Family members can reply with "intercom" from their devices

If Siri doesn't get it
Intercom needs HomePods set up in the same Home and family members added with Intercom enabled in the Home app settings.
