How is it keeping up with chat? Also, do you guys leave the notifications on, on who is leaving and joining? Thanks, Traci PS. I’ve been learning Zanzibar/421. I found it complicated to begin with, but I think I’m getting the hang of it. Lol! :) > On Mar 30, 2023, at 2:39 PM, 'Nichole Keck' vi

Re: New HomePods?

I love the idea of being able to send messages or FaceTime call from the device I think probably for me the best bet would get some thing like the mini because I didn’t find the music experience to be that great on the bigger HomePod as I said, I’m not a bass head, so it really wasn’t geared toward

Re: New HomePods?

I have not heard the HomePod in person, but do own a couple of HomePod minis. I also have 2 of the Sonos 1 speakers. With Airplay 2 it is quite nice to get the minis and Sonos talking with each other. Start music in the kitchen and then tell SIRI to Play it in the Living Room. I'm just using th

Re: A good translation app for iOS

Phil, there is a Google Translate app for iOS. I don't know if there's a way to create a shortcut of some kind to ask Siri to translate something but it goes to the Google Translate app instead, though I've heard of assistant finagling before so it's probably not out of the realm of possibility. I

Re: QuentinC's Play room?

The big thing is having your Quicknav off. This will give you a normal experience and life will be easy from there. The history can be your friend if you miss something but you have to be patient as Safari will take a few seconds to catch up. > On Mar 30, 2023, at 13:05, Traci Duncan wrote: >

If anyone has experience playing games in QuentinC’s playroom on the Mac, could you pass along tips? Navigation? Voiceover settings, quicknav etc. Maybe some general tips on the platform. Settings you may find helpful. Thank you, Traci -- The following information is important for all members

Re: New HomePods?

Our Sonos speakers drive me crazy!! I like the way they sound, but they always drop out of the system, and our Apple speakers never do. I’m actually looking at the new HomePods to replace a couple of Sonos that I want to retire. Cheers, Donna > On Mar 30, 2023, at 11:56 AM, joseph hodge w

Re: New HomePods?

I bought one and brought it in and tested. I didn’t like it. Too much bass. Even when I turned off the base option in the Home app, it still just sounded tinny then. I much prefer what Sonos is offering. Also, Siri still does her miraculous things like on it still searching. It’s just not for me un
