Set up HomePod in Home on iPod touch
You can use the Home app to set up HomePod and control many HomePod settings.
To learn what you can do with iPod touch and HomePod, see the following in the HomePod User Guide:

Use Home to send and receive Intercom messages
In the Home app, tap , then tap Home Settings.
Tap Intercom, then configure these settings:

Who is allowed to send or receive Intercom messages
Which HomePod speakers can use Intercom
Note: Any home resident can configure when they receive Intercom messages. Only a home owner or admin can configure who can send or receive Intercom messages and which HomePod speakers can use Intercom.
Tap Back, then tap Done.
Tap , then say something like “Hey Siri, intercom, ‘Who ate the last cookie?’”
Your Intercom message is sent to all the HomePod speakers in your home, and to the iOS, iPadOS, and watchOS devices of all members of your home who can send and receive Intercom messages.
To send a message to a HomePod in a specific room or zone, say something like “Hey Siri, tell the office ‘The movie is starting’” or “Hey Siri, announce upstairs ‘I’m going to the store.’”
See Use HomePod as an Intercom in the HomePod User Guide.
Use Home to add and edit HomePod alarms
In the Home app, touch and hold the HomePod button, then do any of the following:
Add an alarm: Tap New Alarm, create the alarm, then tap Done.
Edit an alarm: Tap the alarm, change the time, then tap Done.
Turn alarms on or off: Tap the switch next to an alarm.

Change HomePod settings

You can assign HomePod to a different room, add an automation, create a stereo pair with two HomePod speakers in the same room, rename HomePod, turn on accessibility features, and more.
Add a Siri-enabled accessory
You can extend access to HomePod throughout your home by enabling Siri on compatible HomeKit accessories such as thermostats, light switches, and more. “Hey Siri” can be enabled on these accessories so you can control them with your voice, get help with everyday questions or tasks, and play your favorite music and podcasts (beta).
See Set up a Siri-enabled accessory in the HomePod User Guide.
