HomePod chaos
Hi, Recently I bought 2 HomePod minis and placed them in my kitchen and bathroom. I have noticed that they keep their alarms/reminders device-local and take priority over any other device. For example I can hold up my phone, say something like "hey siri set alarm for 7am" and the kitchen echo will respond something like "none of your devices can do that" (obviously sound quality suffered from distance) or worse, it sets an alarm on the device not my phone, waking everyone in the household not just me. Another annoying habit it has is to set a reminder on one device, then later I say something like "cancel my reminders", accidentally the other HomePod picks it up, says something like "I cancelled all your reminders" then a few minutes later the first HomePod will still remind me - so it's not even shared across HomePods. Setting wake-up alarms gotten so bad and complicated (walk out of a room, whisper to the phone directly) I had to disable both HomePods from listening to "siri". Now all they are is expensive decoration (except when once a week we listen to some music on it). Is there no way to make HomePods not to be the highest priority devices and use alarms/reminders from the phone (like it does with shopping lists)? This annoying experience I would expect from MS and Alexa maybe, but not Apple.

SwiftUI Picker doesn't use NavigationView
Hi, when I try to use Picker inside a Form, inside a NavigationView it will always use the .menu style for the Picker. All tutorials, docs show the default renderings to have a new nav page rendered with the options. I don't want this 'dropdown', I want my pickers to behave the same way they do in iOS system settings (new subpage with navigation). I'm using the latest xcode, creating for iOS. struct SettingsView: View { @Binging var colorScheme: ColorScheme?   @State var selectedColorScheme: Int = 1       var body: some View {     NavigationView {       Form {         Section(header: Text("UI").foregroundColor(.secondary)) {           Picker("Color scheme", selection: $selectedColorScheme) {             Text("system default").tag(1)             Text("light theme").tag(2)             Text("dark theme").tag(3)            }.onChange(of: selectedColorScheme) { scheme in             switch scheme {             case 1:               colorScheme = nil             case 2:               colorScheme = .light             case 3:               colorScheme = .dark             default:               break             }           }       }     }   } }

Interactive Charts
I’ve spent a couple hours trying to figure out how to make SwiftUI charts interactive (not static, can tap, drag, there’s a tooltip and a cursor on the selected data). I found the word “interactive” mentioned even in Apple docs, but not a single handler or any example showing any form of interaction. Every article I found tells me to use a 3rd party package. Is it possible that SwiftUI charts are just static (why would you even have something like that in 2022)? And if so, how did they create the charts in the Health App?
