I have been having an issue for months where during every third song while streaming Apple Music, Dolby Atmos clicks off and the song reverts to just stereo. I either have to pause the song and restart or back the song up to the beginning to re-enable Atmos. I can’t believe the engineers aren’t aware of this issue. It is extremely aggravating. It’s always something with this app.  I have Arc Ultra, Era 300’s, and Sub gen 3.

I do  not know how long ago I bought my first Sonos. But it is a long time ago. More then 15 yeas ago I think. In the beginning it was great. But slowly it became less and less stabile during the years.My wifi and cabled internet is stabile. Always +500 mbs. All systems in house are working properly. Internet on computers, alarm, solar panels etc.So I do not understand why I have Sonos drop outs frequently. Boxes and music. And sometime the Sonos boxes work and then after +/- 10 sec numbers are stopped. Not talking about the speed of the app. It is terribly.I tried to contact support by phone many times. Always ques that are longer then 60 minutes. So waiting was no option.What are my alternatives? Anyone good ideas?

Hi All,I’ve read a few posts on this topic.What’s the best app to achieve some very basic PA on Sonos?ThxThomas

That’s IT Sonos. Your lousy app sucks. Your company sucks. I had a party for my wife’s birthday WITHOUT MUSIC because your app would not work. Your company is worthless and a joke. I have thousands of dollars of your equipment  and they are all BRICKS. I hope you go out of business. I will make it my goal to badmouth you on every blog I can. I will also make sure everyone I know never buys your stuff. In fact I made an announcement at the party to explain why we had no music. I told the horror story that is Sonos and told everyone to NEVER BUY YOUR STUFF.  SONOS COMMUNITY WE NEED A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. ANY LAWYERS OUR THERE? I’M IN!!!!!

So they closed this one. If its too inconvenient just stop the comments. Said it before and it's still true.SONOS = CONTEMPT FOR CUSTOMERSSonos is not deserving of its customers. But then the only customers that seem matter are those that want new products. And even where the android app is working, it's responsiveness is variable.  The desktop app still works fine. But the mobile app should work just as well. It's a wireless system!! Apparently. I'd rather have something that works than the latest design of the android app. However good it might (eventually) be. At this rate it will be a year of deliberately hobbled functionality. I might be dead before it works as it should.  

It is hard to describe… but after the update a few days ago I have noticed a very annoying search behavior on my iPad and iPhone… when displaying hits from different sources the app screen stops half way … not showing hits from all sources. Then after a while the rest is shown… the app errors apparently never stops… gosh. Also, my local library often disappears… I have to restart the app to get it back in the search results (if this part of the screen is not frozen of course).Anyone…?  

No longer receiving an alarm notification on my iPhone, any idea how to fix? 

Beware this one’s a bumpy ride again. Music is playing but it can’t find a system on my network😳 I’d suggest waiting a day or two for this to stabilise. I now have a broken system….again.  Keeps telling me to sign in but sign in button is ineffective.App start up does not recognise my network.Getting connection time outs even when it’s showing music is playing.No streaming services working    Basically an unusable mess🙄 EDIT :Update…After about an hour my system has stabilised. One of my Sonos Ones kept showing as not updated  this has now been fixed. PositivesAlbum art works for every track in my local library, previously this was about 50%  System seems fasterTrueplay now working again on iPhone 16pro  So after a rocky update, of which my Internet provider may have played a part, things are looking good.   

Hi. So even after the new update thr album and channel art for SiriisXM is erratic. It loads correctly the 1st time when the app is opened. After that, it appears to always lag a song or station behind on any Android device. Change the channel and it displays thr artwork for the previous channel. Issue for me only on androidn devices. IOS appears to.be far more functional with this at thr moment. Have tried to uninstall and reinstall app to see if was an on phone queue issue with no improvement Thank You. 

I am new to Sonos.  I have a couple of older Play 3.  I stream music from my iphone.  I would like to be able to allow my wife to access the speakers from her iphone when I am away.  How do I do this?

Today I tried to connect to the app. It will not play content displays no content found and does not pull up TV as a source. I cannot get my audio controls to recognize my speakers. WIFI is working fine. 

On the old Sonos app I could download music from IDAGIO to Sonos playlists but cannot find how to do it on the new Sonos app. Can it be done and, if so, how?

Why is it taking so long to fix the appi feel as if it is as bad now as it was five months ago.  I would go as far as saying that it is UNUSABLE.  I’ve loved Sonos products for years and am blown away at the lack of attention the Sonos company has placed on fixing this  

Is there a way to cast to a different set of speakers from previous session?   When i go to cast the only option is to cast to the same set of speakers that I used the last time.

why does the sonos app no work on macos? I’ve tried downloading it from the sonos website and all it keeps saying in the sonos app from the sonos website is that sonos needs to get the latest software?says:We need to get Sonos running on the latest software.Choose Check for Updates to get started.  

I have Amazon music. Playlists in Sonos favorites. Playlists in Amazon music on the Sonos iphone app. I can’t add songs to any playlist. I was able to do so, that’s how I created the playlists. The playlists have <50 songs, about 20 each. Why can’t I add songs now? Sonos help had me disconnect from Amazon music once, that worked for a while. Broken again. I doing that repeatedly is silly/stupid. Perhaps Sonos lost their way - it was simple to use, now it just breaks. Speaker quality is irrelevant if you can’t get them to play.

We used to be able to search our NAS libraries by genre (as well as other tags)Is this still available?If yes, how?If not, will that capability ever be restored?

After years of using my fantastic Cocktail Audio X12 Music Server with Sonos we got the new app. After a year of update after update, I still cannot add my Music Server to my Sonos system. I am looking for help, and also now looking at different ways of playing music from my server. Sonos is going in the bin next year. Merry Christmas!!

Why is it not possible to search for a song? When I look i can see the album cover: a scrub bar: a volume bar and other items- but no search- the old app let you search for a new song whilst listening to a tune... I have to back out of the screen 2 times to search... terrible... and the lag! Terrible 

Waited for some time like many with Sonos products for the app update. I can finely use this huge investment I have made in Sonos again like so many have. All systems go and just in time for Xmas and I might just re invest in the the new Arc.A word to Sonos I made a big switch from Bose to Sonos because in my opinion you had the edge but something like an app renders it almost useless and on that note all the best to everyone. 

I'm unapologetically repeating this topic because the answer 6 months ago was to wait for app updates. Surely 6 months is long enough to wait for basic functionality to be restored so can we at least have a forecast when we'll get it back please?POV: It's a well known adage in software development that you should never throw it all away and start again because you'll spend years getting back to where you were and rediscovering why each weird bit of code worked the way it did. Very sadly Sonos didn't know about this😥😥😥😥

At last Sonos seems to have fixed the delays when using the volume slider and for start/stop buttons. It was incomprehensible to me how an audio company could release software which had such delays.  Yes there should be a small delay as they buffer on play, but stop or mute should have been instantaneous. This latest update fixes the responsiveness fo EQ settings too. But why they bury these settings so far from the volume controls is still a pain 

I am streaming Spotify through a Connect to the aux RCA jacks on a Yamaha receiver and the output is not in stereo,  verified by playing a left/right channel test track.  Both channels play through both speakers at once.  The test track works through headphones plugged into the phone.
