Stop music after 30 minutes with Siri
Quick answer
"Stop playing in 30 minutes" and HomePod sets a sleep timer that fades the audio out when time's up, without setting an alarm. Great for falling asleep to music or a podcast. Say "how much time is left on the sleep timer" to check, or "cancel the sleep timer" to keep playing.
Say this
“Stop playing in 30 minutes”
How it works
- 01Say "Hey Siri" to your HomePod
- 02Say "stop playing in 30 minutes"
- 03Check with "how much time is left on the sleep timer"

If Siri doesn't get it
If audio doesn't stop, use the word "stop playing" plus a duration so Siri sets a sleep timer rather than a countdown alarm.
