User level: Level 1 (4 points)Homekit no longer works after recent update. I have tried rebooting, etc. I have a HomePod, which I have refreshed, but it still is not connecting to lights, etc. I have never had this issue before! UGH.

In Home, open Home Settings > Home Hubs & Bridges and check whether your HomePod shows as Connected. Try controlling one light in its manufacturer’s app too. If that works but Home does not, check that the iPhone and HomePod are on the same home network and that Home is enabled in your iCloud settings; avoid removing the Home for now.
