    HomePod Using HomePod with iPhone as Live Microphone Speaker

    Is it possible to use an iPhone (or a connected mic-enabled wired headset) as a live microphone with the HomePod amplifying sound? For example, an event that needs room music but also a small PA for people giving short speeches. Can HomePod handle both in some way?

    iMac 2017 5k recording with internal microphone

    Quick question. I was playing a song while recording a screencast on my iMac using the internal microphone. I can hear my voice loud and clear, but the music playing on my computer gets distorted. Have anyone try to do the same thing? If so, what are the results?

    Internal Mic Question

    Does the new mid 2017 model has the same microphone locations? I needed to replaced the housing of my system, and the new case has no microphone holes. I found this picture online, but I think is from the 2015 model.

    AirPods microphones do not work with third party apps

    I just noticed that the mics on the AirPods do not work with third party applications like Whatsapp (voice note), Instagram (video), Snapchat (video/voice note), etc. and only works with Apple's own apps: phone, iMessage, camera and voice memos (haven't tried with GarageBand).
