Controllers and Music services

So now many of us are losing the ability to stream from Google Play, are Sonos looking to help their users find another free streaming service?I found iBroadcast but can see that a few years back conversations were happening between the companies, but what has happened?

Dear Community, Is it possible to make two way communication between sonos mobile app and sonos amp? If so, what is the equipment and apps to achieve it please?  Thanks

Does anyone know how to access the lyrics for Apple Music via Sonos? On the Sonos website it clearly states that this is available, but I cannot find it anywhere.   

I'm having an odd issue - I can't seem to add (or play) Apple Music on my Sonos --- directly from Apple Music. I can stream from my Windows PC (presumably AirPlay 2) - but I can't actually play my (paid) Apple Music library from the Sonos app.I'm getting error 701 on my iPad, and "UNABLE TO ADD TO QUEUE" (no error code) on the Windows 10 native Sonos app.OTHER details: The only (recent) change to my Sonos system is I added Spotify Premium. I think something may have gotten corrupted - even the name of my Apple Music service was what I thought I set Spotify to.FINALLY: I've had Sonos (and 10 zones) for >11 years so I'm pretty familiar - and had to remove my Sonos Bridge (thanks Sonos) when S2 was released. That's when weird stuff like this started...

Hoe kan ik die steeds terugkerende vraag naar het checken van compatibiliteit met de s2-app uitschakelen? Ik heb juist die s1-app moeten installeren omdat Sonos een apparaat van een paar jaar oud als verouderd heeft gelabeld. Die reminder is overbodig en ik neem aan dat dat voor alle gebruikers van de s1-app geldt. Is dit een beetje jennen soms van Sonos? 

I use only Spotify Premium, build playlists in Spotify, and play via Sonos (Playbar; Play 1). I cannot get beyond 4K songs per Spotify playlist for Sonos queue to accept it. Everything I’m reading indicates either no max size, or a much larger than 4K song playlist. Any helpers?Lou, BC, Cda.

I have a Playbar plus 4x Sonos ones, what is the best way to connect a Turntable to this set up?Finally is it possible to connect to the Tidal subscription service with my setup using Sonos S2 Amp on Android

Does Sonos play 24 bit 48khz on Qobuz with my Sonos five.

My Sonos controller for my Mac book stopped working because I have 3 components (out of 13) that only work on S1 app now. Is there an alternative? I need to control my S1 from Mac

I’ve seen a number of old, now closed, comments about this and would like to address it once again. I’d love to be able to create named folders in Favorites so I could better organize what I listen to. Playlists doesn’t do what I want as it will add all songs individidually from an album, not just the album like Favorites does. For example, I might add folders for Jazz, Blues, Rock, Ambient, Classical, Folk, Soul etc.and have favorite albums from each genre. Anyone else want a feature like this?  

Hi,I have both Sonos Play 5 (Gen 1) and Sonos Move, and put them in S1 system so that they can work together.Usually I group/un-group them at the “Room” Tab, but I notice that in the Setting - AirPlay tab, it has an option called "Group Non-AirPlay Products", it seems that to group my Play 5 with Move.I turn on/off this option, but it seems does not have any effect on my devices, I can only group/un-group them at the “Room” Tab, so my question is: What's the use of "Group Non-AirPlay Products"? Is it conflict with the group function at the “Room” Tab?

I mistakenly created three playlists for myself….can the playlist be combined into one?  will duplicated songs be eliminated?I cant seem to figure it out. ThanksRex*Moderator Note: Please censor personal information when posting.* 

In the most recent S2 12.1 update, we see Sonos supporting 5ghz on various products. What does that mean for existing users? And how will it affect users who incorporate mesh networks at their homes?

I cant get S2 to fully install I download then app wants to update but its to a beta program I  previously asked to leave not a S2 update I cant see how to delete the beta on my system If I update to beta  it tries but does not install on android or IOS. Tried on windows it says my system is not compatible  as it has 1 comp that not compatible and that is clearly incorrect as I was on the S2 beta, I have uninstalled all apps then restarted by downloading S2 multiple times but just going round in a circle. Any idea how to get rid of beta? Or do I start a new system? I didnt want to do this as I will lose years of  historical set up and I’ve multiple speakers  I reported this on Monday when app came out but only had auto mail feedback 

I see people have been requesting this for years, has Sonos just ignored it? Why can't there be an option to limit the volume on startup???

In Android 11 media apps have their controls residing above the notifications in a separate section where you van swipe left and right between controls from different apps. Sonos controls are however not in this section but are sitting between the regular notifications (see screenshot).Please include them in the proper place. 

Hiya,  I use spotify and rather than adding the songs i like into a playlist, i like them, meaning they are all together, under ‘Liked Songs’. Does anyone know how i can play these songs on my sonos, i can’t find a way!  Thanks! Amelie

Cinemix seems to have vanished from TuneIn so, just for anyone who is missing it (I have it on almost all the time) the URL to add in Manage>Add Radio Station is http://cinemix.us/cine.asx

AirPlay doesn’t work, or takes forever to start anything. App doesn’t work spewing “can’t connect” “error” and other BS messages.Everything was fine with the older app. My setup has literally not change, except for this crap new app. Now I’m using my $100 Nokia speaker, because my $5000 Sonos setup is ******* unreachable.And do not blame this on the “network” or “router” or “user”: I’ve been running a tight performant network for the last 5 years and it only improved in these Covid times. FIX. THE. APP!  Moderator Note: Edited post inline with the Community guidelines.

Hello:For the past year or so, I have had two Sonos systems between two locations.  Whenever I switched locations, the Sonos controller app would dutifully switch systems.  I updated both systems to the S2 controller, and everything still functioned properly.  However, recently (mid-august) I have had to reset the controller on my phone (Android based) to get the software to recognize that I have switched locations.  I have verified that I can control the other system remotely using my home security systems when the controller software is “confused” about it’s location.  This would seem to be an issue recently introduced by a S2 software update.  I do have these two locations VPN’d together, but this has always been the case, and predates either Sonos installation.  Something has changed with the controller software that seems to allow it to leverage this VPN connection.

Hi, I have a SONOS Play: 1 and primarily use it to play my local music collection over DLNA / UPnP i.e. ‘Show Media Servers’ & ‘Show UPnP Servers’ then I can just browse my personal collection. If I upgrade to ‘S2’ will I still be able to do this? Thanks,

I’ve had Sonos for many years.  My system grew to 8 zones and although there would sometimes be problems there was never something that couldn’t be fixed by rebooting everything from my router through switches to wired and wireless Sonos devices.  Hey ho, this is the price we pay for humanity’s early steps to networking Nirvana (which probably won’t be reached in my lifetime!) Then came news of Sonos S2.  After getting past Sonos’ poor initial communications, and finding that most of my devices were S2 compatible I upgraded the remaining ones and apart from being annoyed that the new Sonos Port is functionally a backwards step (no volume control buttons, no pause/play button, no optical digital output) I was ready to say ‘Hello’ to S2. I hesitated. I had a splendid multi-room sound setup feeding both simple speakers and two traditional hifi stereo systems.  I didn’t want a load of hassle.  Life’s too short to spend hours rebooting, deleting and adding components or hanging on the ph

I see Amazon Music added podcasts.https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/16/21439531/amazon-music-podcasts-prime-titlesAny idea when these will be playable on my Sonos speakers?

Sonos, what the heck? Why can’t I set night mode to come on at night? It’s called Night Mode. It has a picture of the moon. It’s been a feature request on here for *years*.Why can I still not schedule night mode to come on at night?
