Did a search but everything that came up related to using Airplay. Just interested in seeing if SONOS has or intends on developing a SONOS app like on my iPhone, iPad etc. for the Apple TV? It would be awesome to have that!
Question
Apple TV App
It’s been a request essentially since Apple released the Apple TV. I’m certain your request will be passed on, but so far, there’s been no indication that they’re working on one.
Thanks for your reply. That’s interesting, and a real shame too. It would be so good to have that convenience and practicality. Can’t see why it would so hard given they already have the apps for IOS, Android and Windows.
If I were to guess, it’s just the number of engineering time to maintain it. Of course, if you were to support that, there would be calls for other devices, too (TV’s, watches, etc), all which would add extra pressure to limited update resources.
I’ll be honest, it’s not something I would want. I use my iPads, mostly, to control my Sonos, and rarely look at them to see what’s playing. But I’m not everyone, I suspect there are numbers collected for PMs to look at. I’m not against the idea, it just wouldn’t serve much purpose for me. I use my Apple TV to watch TV, not to listen to music ;)
I’m completely lost as to what you guy’s are discussing. A SONOS Apple TV app? Just exactly what would it do or maybe I’m wording my question incorrectly due to my lack of understanding this thread.🤔
Basically, the Sonos App, running on an Apple TV.
It would be awesome to have that!
Agree, this would be a pretty cool app to have. Probably never gonna happen though imo.
OK...if
I have four (4) AppleTV’s and not once have I thought it would be nice to have the Sonos App running on them. AppleTV is a visual medium interface where as Sonos is auditory. One could possibly make an argument that AppleTV embodies both visual and auditory sensory perceptions; however, I doubt many view it as more than a visual interaction with a TV.
I’m far from being a luddite by any stretch of the imagination; but for the life of me I can’t envision a practical need for Sonos on AppleTV. The Sonos App is on my phone, tablet and computer the first two being readily available 99% of the time. Why would I want to power-up AppleTV and my TV to enjoy Sonos? I’m open to interpretation and a logical reason.
Help me please 😥
Some people want to show the Album Art on the TV’s screen. I’m always busy listening to the music, it isn’t a visual thing to me, even on my iPad, but others are different.
I’m not an AppleTV user. Is there a web browser function? If so, maybe it could run the SONOS web app.
