I was assuming in the Apple TV settings you would just select the HomePod as the output source the same way you can select Bluetooth headphones.

OT: For those not aware, you don't have to open the menu/settings to change your audio-out. When you are at the Apple TV Springboard or an Apple app, hold down the play/pause button on the remote for a couple seconds, a menu will appear where you can directly select your AirPods, TV, or other BT/Speakers, there is also "Choose Music" option here, not sure if that is for Home Sharing, Apple Music, or both.

The date on the cheque is "03/01/2024", Huntington Bank is a US bank, yes? So would the date not indicate March 1st, instead of the 3rd of January. I thought in the US, dates are written as MM/DD/YYYY not as DD/MM/YYYY.

Funny story in the silly season. No products, no announcements, and iPhone rumors are mostly about colors and last-minute production problems as always in July.
A bit surprised that US banks still handle checks at all.

I agree, It is strange about cheques there. Here everything is transfer, either through a service (like Bizum) or by IBAN.

What I would like to see is the ability to adjust the volume. Whether playing the car’s own media sources or the iPhone, when directions or warnings are given it is loud enough to make everyone in the car cringe. If for some reason I’ve missed a setting step, HELP (deliberately shouting)

Hello, 

I had the opposite problem, Siri directions being too quiet.  I found two ways to adjust the volume:

On your iPhone, Settings > Maps > Voice Indications, there are three settings:  High, Normal, Low

However, the one that I find most useful: While Siri is actively giving you directions: Using your car's volume control, lower or raise the volume to the level you want. This adjusts the volume of Siri, not what ever is playing in the background. You have to do this while Siri is actively talking, or it controls the general volume.

 I hate that most places I use Apple Pay still require a signature or a PIN. 

In the United States as of April 2018 signatures are no longer required for most (all?) credit card transactions. Yes the terminals prompt for it, and when paper is printed, the staff request it, however that's an education topic not a requirement by Visa, MasterCard, AmEx, etc. Don't sign your name, let the person no it's no longer required per card companies, and scribble, as if you didn't scribble before you read this. There is a post about this on CreditCards.com, I don't have the link handy, but a quick search will bring up several articles.

Second vote for a round watch bezel.

If you make the watch round, then where do you put the complications? To me, the corners are the perfect place for them. I have three watch faces I swipe to depending on which complications I'm going to be using (working out, cooking, normal).
