I don’t think Apple has abandoned the HomePod or the Apple TV
BobBeach
16:37:14
They keep getting software updates and there are strong rumours of a new Apple TV and new HomePod Mini this year
BobBeach
16:38:35
They are not their main products of course but I doubt very much they will stop producing them
Marty
16:38:38
What do they need to do to the current products (tv, HomePod) that would drive new purchases
Marty
16:39:03
It does what most folks want

I do. It's because I rely on Workona and it doesn't run in Safari because of intentional limitations in Apple's code.
