HomePod Connect

This add-on allows you to stream music directly to your HomePods from Spotify.

You can find more details on the Home Assistant Community post and in the Documentation tab.

Features

  • OwnTone & librespot-java inside one Docker image
  • Ready out of the box with zeroconf & Home Assistant integration
  • Control OwnTone through Home Assistant
  • Metadata support (visible in Home Assistant)
  • Fully customizable through the config files in /config/owntone

Requirements

  • A Spotify Premium account
  • At least one HomePod
  • Correct set up in the Home app
    • Home -> Home Settings -> Allow Speaker & TV Access -> Anyone On the same Network
    • Home -> Home Settings -> Allow Speaker & TV Access -> Require Password: Disabled
  • VSCode addon or any other text editor to edit the configuration

Comfort features

Additionally to this addon, I recommend to use the Home Assistant OwnTone integration. With that, you can control which HomePod should play music.

Open your Home Assistant instance and start setting up a new integration.
