How to use a HomePod with several Apple accounts?
I currently have a family plan for two people: myself and my friend. I also have a HomePod, on which I listen to my music.
My friend has an Android phone with the Apple Music App (but has a MacBook). Can we listen to her playlists on the HomePod?
Thanks
