Does Sonos support Trueplay with the 2020 iPad (7. Generation) and the iPad Air (3. Generation)?

Are the songs on the Hot Country Sonos Station updated daily? If not, how often? How long is the playlist? It seems like I hear the same songs after listening all day. Thank you.

Hello, I am having a lot of problems with the speakers showing up on my device My setup: AMP and Play:1 connected over wifi with an Eero mesh system. In a perfect world I would use Ethernet for all of them but that really isn’t an option. Both of them should have no signal strength issues, and their IPv4s will not change. When I was first setting them up, it was a lot more difficult than it usually is. I would be able to find the device but it wouldn’t connect to the network. After a while of messing with things and a lot of luck, I managed to get both of them connected simultaneously. At which point they worked for a day before I was unable to connect to them through the app. And haven’t gotten it to work since. I have tried several factory resets but nothing seems to get them to work. I can see them to set them up but it just won’t play nice with my network.

So S2 is all white again!    where did Dark mode go

I currently run Deezer Elite -- this is an FLAC stream.  I was told by an audio salesman that while Sonos runs FLAC the audio you actually get is less than CD quality due to Sonos’ own compression.  Is this true? If so, does the broader band of S2 eliminate said compression (or is the improved sound quality only going to be when you upgrade a stream all the way to HD) Would this elimination be immediately audible or do we need to await further updates?  

Have this issue since Beta - Passed it on but never fixed before S2.  See 3 Photos below. Issue is when App is opened the 1st screen comes on & say “searching”. Stays on for 10 - 15 seconds. Then 2nd screen comes on & says “Not Found” & will stay on until I move mouse or press any key & then 3rd screen comes on which is the actual System. This issues goes back to the Beta Project. I have tried deleting app & rebooting to no avail. I have App on iOS & iPadOS with no problem. Works fine. I hope somebody from Sonos is monitoring this discussion???  

Hello have new Sonos move and able to register listen and connect through my phone.  when try to find the move throguh other mobile he wasnt able. I tried both create new account and also to find existing device with no success.  after download the app on other deviced, how can i connect the move to more then one mobile device?

When I launch on Android phone (working fine with my Play 1 based  setup 2 days ago) it says S1 controller is not compatible, and insists I upgrade to S2 controller. The store says S2 is not available in my region (UK) but the text is all chinese or japanese. I’m now stuck in thsi stupid loop. I have reset , uninstalled , reloaded searched for the existing system (rwhich uns fine on my PC) all to no avail. total time wasted so far 4 hours! I have to say that the constant upgrdes and re-loads every time I move between 2 houses has made using Sonos a complete waste of my time - really very disappointed as the system works well when it works - but is less than useless when tghis kind of thing happens.  It stopped working on my ipad ages ago and will be thrown out when the final controller tells me its not compatible . Grrrrrr The advice that I can carry on using s1 is of no use if the “you need to update to s2” message wont go away. All and Any help would be appreciated

Hi,   Yesterday after a confusing and not straight process,my Sonos system updated to Sonos S2 app. This “new” app, besides having an ugly color it doesn’t work well as the “old” app.   I lost the Volume control and preview of songs!    Is it possible to roll back to the previous app?  No matter that my hardware has been updated?   Thanks!

Sonos get your act together. No trueplay except for some Apple products and no android ones. You can’t sort this out? Really? This is a big do not buy Sonos issue. I registered just to say this, do not think it will do any good or even be posted but I feel better having done so. You choose to do this for your own reasons.

This is a workaround, but with a Sonos Beam (or probably an Arc) connected to a smart TV, you can use the Hoopla app on the TV to borrow titles from the library, then stream throughout the house.  

Just bought a Google Play audiobook, thought I could play it with Sonos, as I thought it would be part of Google Play (Music library).  But now can’t do it.  Any suggestions?

Will today’s system updates allow the playing of 24/96 FLAC files?  Or do I need to purchase S2 devices?  

I moved house over a year ago and have just got around to setting up my beloved Sonos system [2xZP120 Connect:amp and 1x Connect (Get 1)]. My controllers on Mac CPU and iPhones have updated the software and I can no longer link my devices. How can I download the old app (s1 I believe) to control my old devices. Any help would be really appreciated. I am gutted that I cannot use this fab equipment.

Hi there, I have a LG TV 2019 Airplay enabled that is connected to a Playbar. When I am Airplaying to the TV and the Playbar is connected via optical I cannot change the volume from my iPhone with the volume controls as I can do when airplaying to my Play One. If I change the sound output on the TV from Optical (Playbar) to TV Speakers I am able to change the volume with the iPhone volume controls when Airplaying.   Thanks in advance.   Cheers  

So it is 4pm on the 8th June here and still no Sonos S2 update. Hmmmmm.

Will trueplay finally be supported on android with the launch of the s2 app?

Since I installed the S2 app on my iPhone 11, I noticed my battery got drained rapidly.  See picture below:     The Screen Off is 54 min. meaning the Sonos S2 app is active in the background doing something...  I had no issue using the original Sonos app before. I have to swipe out manually the app to prevent the battery from draining. Anyone experiencing the same issue?

I was really excited to hear that Sonos was going to support hi-res audio, but I had a tough S2 transition.  After reconfiguring both my main wireless and Sonos networks, I’m able (so far) to hear songs all the way through and have not had a device go missing in days! After this work, S2 still is very, very slow to load.  Worse, it seems like a song will start to play before the buffer has enough data.  So I will lose the first few seconds, then have a rough few seconds, then have the song settle in. This happens when, say, playing something from Amazon Music on Sonos.  It doesn't seem to happen once the queue is up and running, unless songs are skipped and rebuffering is needed.  It does not happen with internet radio on Sonos, which is much lower fidelity.  It also does not seem to happen with my networked music files on Sonos, maybe because they’re 360K MP3’s and local, don’t need much buffering.  We have a very fast network connection and I have no lags at all when using the Amaz

Now that S2 has arrived and folks are sending in their hate mail since their favorite feature wasn’t included (or exactly the way they wanted) I figured I would jump up on a very small and rickety soapbox for my gripe. Sonos has shown they have the UI skills to surface the received audio format information into the UI I’d love to see it expand to the format beyond just the DD/Atmos logo for the Arc. basically, surface any of the information we all currently have to dig into the About My System screen to find. The Atmos logo is a start; complete the process.

With the new upgraded Sonos app, I can no longer add songs through the app to my Spotify playlist. It just allows me to “Save to Your Music”.  Here’s a picture of all the options available when trying to add.  This is a problem, the old version had more options and you could very simply access the Spotify playlists - now you cannot - that’s a problem for me! any help thanks!    

Does it make sense Sonos APP for Mac to be taking so much memory (~2GB) , or I am the only one having the issue with it ?

Does the newest Sonos update allow us to stream at cd-quality from the Amazon Music app or do we still need to use the Sonos app to do so? 

iOS Just updated, but don’t know what is new.

I can't dismiss the Sonos android notification anymore.
