I don't find a 2FA option in Settings -> Passwords, or in Keychain.  Where can I add my token/seed or create new 2FA?

In Settings->Passwords:
After you save a new password/account, you will have a place to set up a 'Verification Code' under Account Options using the QR code or setup key.

Thanks - I've never noticed that button!

For some reason the option to use "key/seed" is grayed out for me:

Does the hardware or software require an online account (like all other Withings products)?  

If so, hell no.  

My health data is none of their business.

Appleinsider should research & detail this requirement for ANY product they review.

You can still factory reset a HomePod or HomePod mini by plugging it into the USB port on a Mac. 

Really?  I have a dozen of the OG HomePods and two of the 2nd gen - where do you plug in the USB cable (they do not have a USB port????

I’m sure he would be livid over this HomePod, iPhone, watch Siri differentiation issue. What really sucks that if I’m in a room with my  HomePod, phone and watch that I do not know where Siri will come from, especially when it’s a personal request and the HomePod responds with I can’t do that. Steve Jobs is probably rolling over in his grave

With my wife and I each having iPhones, iPads and my Watch, as well as a house full of HomePods, I found the most reliable solution was to disable Hey Siri on all the devices except the HomePods. For my needs, there is no benefit to having the phones or Watch respond to Hey Siri. If I am not at home, the phone is within arm's reach and the Watch is on my wrist, so I can easily push the buttons to engage Siri when needed.

Maybe I’ll try that idea, but I still wish that Apple could figure out a way for the different devices to somehow communicate with each other and delegate the task to just one device that is closest to the command issuer. I’m guessing that ability will be forthcoming with the advancement of AI.

This is a home infrastructure issue (WiFi).

We have 13 home pods.  My wife & I each have an iPhone, Apple Watch & iPad.  Always only one device answers.  Unless the iPhone or iPad are unlocked and in use, a home pod answers.  If you are actively using an iPhone or iPad, they will take priority and only one will answer.  This works by all the devices talking on the same reliable WiFi network. Multiple devices hear the "Hey Siri!, and they decide which will answer & inform the others to not answer.

You need to troubleshoot your home infrastructure.  This is a problem that Apple solved from the beginning.
