HomePod users can now disable touch controls on their devices with the upcoming update to iOS 27.2. This feature, first reported by leaker pdfu, aims to address issues with phantom touches and is especially beneficial for those with young children or pets at home. The 'Lock Controls' setting, accessible within the Home app's HomePod accessory settings, prevents the HomePod from responding to touch interactions while still allowing it to respond to intercom, timers, alarms, Check In, and FaceTime calls. This new feature is available for all HomePod models, including the original 2018 version.
