Apple has introduced a new feature called Sound Glow for its HomePod mini and second-generation HomePod, as well as the second-generation HomePod. This feature adds a colorful, animated light show to the speaker's touch surface, based on the album artwork of the currently playing song. To enable Sound Glow, ensure that you have updated to the latest software version 27.2.
Open the Home app, long-press on your HomePod and go to the settings, where you will find a new toggle for Sound Glow. Simply enable it and start playing music to witness the colorful effects. Alternatively, you can enable Sound Glow from the Control Center on an Apple TV when paired to HomePods. By enabling Sound Glow, you can enhance the ambiance of a party or any gathering with a visually appealing light show. However, you can easily disable the feature when it's not needed, to avoid any distractions.
