Thanks to various unique selling points, Qobuz is definitely an alternative to large music streaming services such as Spotify, Deezer and Co. Nevertheless, the service is less well known compared to its major competitors. This also raises the question of whether such a “niche service” is effective in terms of compatibility. Apple users in particular have to be careful here.
For example, if you want to play music from Qobuz with Siri via your Apple HomePods, we have to disappoint you at this point. Qobuz is not compatible with most smart speakers, including Apple’s HomePod devices. Furthermore, you cannot play songs and other content via the voice assistant Siri.

At least you can still connect Qobuz to Apple HomePods. However, playing music only works via the Qobuz app, which you have to install on a device connected to the smart speaker. You can find out exactly how the connection to the smart speaker works in this way in a separate article on how to connect your Apple HomePod via Bluetooth.
If you play music via the Qobuz app, it will sound through the speaker. Are you not an Apple fan but use smart home products from Amazon or Google? We’ll show you how to connect Qobuz to Alexa and pair it with the Google Assistant.
