Get everyone's attention by using your iPhone, or HomePod as an Intercom

With the release of iOS 14.2 for the iPhone, iPad, HomePod and HomePod mini, your devices can now send quick voice messages to everyone in the home with the new Intercom feature. Messages sent via Intercom are recordings of your actual voice that arrive instantly to the people and HomePods you have permitted over in the Home app on iOS. Here's how to use the Intercom feature and how to manage settings for your home.

Requirements

To get started, you must be running iOS 14.2 or later on your iOS devices and HomePod, and have a home set up in the Home app. The Intercom feature is also available on Apple Watch with watchOS 7.1 later, as well as with AirPods and CarPlay. Unfortunately, the Intercom feature is not available on macOS or tvOS at this time.
