Can’t add music services to the new Sonos app


I can’t add new music services to the new Sonos app. The app is up to date, I’ve tried restarting my phone, logging out and back in on the app, trying multiple times with Amazon Music and Deezer. The service page says that the service was successful added and I can return to Sonos app, but when I do it it says that the service couldn’t be added and try again later.

I have managed to get to Sonos support trough chat and they advised me to restart the router, seems like Sonos can’t access the streaming services servers. It didn’t work and the chat was ended from Sonos part without any resolution. Poor app and poor customer service.

Same here. Just awful what happens to Sonos. We changed the streaming service and now I cannot add the accounts of my Family to Sonos … i‘m more than angry. This all feels like a pre-Alpha preview version that should have never seen the light on peoples systems…

Funny, with the macOS app, I was able to add TIDAL Accounts to Sonos. But if I want to add Apple Music, Sonos tells me, I have to use the iOS or Android apps for that. But the iOS and Android apps tell me about “unexpected errors”, when I try to… it's enough to make your skin crawl

I would suggest to check this other thread as it solved this issue for me (not being able to add my Apple Music account to Sonos) without creating a new Sonos account:

I’ve already seen it, but in my opinion if this is a solution is not a very easy one. Besides that, Sonos support should advise on this if that’s the only possible fix.

Oh, totally agree with you, this is not acceptable at all!

It did work for me and I preferred doing this than not being able to use my Sonos system unfortunately.

I must say I’m very angry at Sonos for putting in production this new App with soooo many bugs or missing features. Truly unbelievable.

Has anyone been able to solve this without factory reset?
