Guide for Developer beta:
Install the HomePod Sofware version 16 Profile
From the iPhone (or iPad) paired to your HomePod mini, go to BetaProfiles.dev to download the configuration profile. Your iPhone will automatically switch to the Home app to install the beta profile, tap "Install" and follow the onscreen instructions.
Update your HomePod mini
Your Apple Watch will automatically receive the latest beta software if you have Automatic Updates turned on in the Software Update settings. To manually check for updates, tap the three-dot icon in the top right corner in the Home app from your iPhone or iPad, tap Home Settings, then go to Software Update.
You can always delete this installed profile anytime you want to stop receiving beta updates. All you need to do is go through the Delete Profile page, which has all the instructions for each of your devices.
As mentioned, Apple currently doesn't allow HomePods downgrades, so if you delete your HomePod beta profile, you will no longer receive any other beta updates until Apple officially releases them.
Provide Feedback
Once the beta is installed, it will come with a built-in Feedback Assistant app, which can be launched from the second page of your Home screen. When you come across an issue that needs addressing, send your feedback to Apple with Feedback Assistant.
