[Resolved] - HomePod 18.2 - Failing to update

Has anyone had issues doing updates on HomePod mini's? I ran the 18.2 update from my MacBook and it seemed to take for ever and never completed. I've just tried again now from my iPhone but it too seems to be stuck on 'update installing'. I'm hoping a 'magic reboot' will resolve it....

Most of mine are on 18.2 (have a couple that don't go past 16.6)

I've never had an issue previously - other than the pods being a bit slow. I love Apple but the automatic updates are never that automatic even though they're set to be. Devices are rarely in the state they need to be so I spend an age (bit of an exaggeration) doing MacBook, 2 iPhones, iPad, 2 HomePods, 2 Apple TVs.

Are yours just stuck on 16.6 due to their hardware revision or a problem updating?

Edit: Success from second attempt, both updated. I usually initiate the update from the phone but had tried it from the MacBook this time (not that it should make a difference)

Hardware revision
