There's a number of Bluetooth Buttons on Amazon and I've tried several to control the Volume, Pause/Play, and FF but they only seem so control the Volume on my iPads/iPods. Does anyone know of a BT button that will work with Sonos?

Along with throngs of others in the community, I would love to see Sonos invest in a little software update to enable more robust playlist management (for example, sorting to find duplicate songs in large playlists). However, it seems this feature request is being ignored and is never going to be implemented. So, now I'm wondering where I can find my sonos playlists on the file system and if I can manually edit them to clean up duplicates. Is this possible?

I am unable to download update - continue to get error code 1101. I have rebooted my router and my Sonos. I've deleted and reinstalled the app on each devise. Any assistance is appreciated

I just upgraded my phone and now can't use trueplay. Very disappointing 😞

Sorry, been using Sonos for several years now but cannot get on with new App design (iPhone/iPad/Sonos v8.6), can someone remind me how to get to the speaker EQ settings in this version please?

I really feel stupid. I just got a Connect:AMP, and tried to adjust the balance between the 2 speakers. But I cannot find how to adjust the balance on the Connect:AMP or any of the Play speaker pairs. I thought it was under Settings / Room Settings. But I only see EQ, Room name, Speaker touch controls, speaker status lights. Cannot find balance on the PLAY boxes either. Running 8.2.1 on IOS and Android. Thanks in advance.

I am over this BS! Do you know what it is like to have to be FORCED to do an upgrade on 6 (SIX!) sonos systems every week? Its never ending! JUST MAKE IT HAPPEN OVERNIGHT! If you are going to shut down features to force your customers to upgrade, then you should make it happen in the background. I don't want to have to deal with this, It disrupts my day! I have 6 sonos systems, home and 5 offices between my husband and me. This update struggle is so annoying.

App working on ipad but not iphone. Iphone gives me message "existing system not found" even though playing perfectly on speakers via ipad controller.

I use my Google Music library, but unlike on Google, where I can just view all songs from a genre, in Sonos I can only view each album from that genre, and then from there I can drill down further to see the one or two songs I have from that album, before backing out of the album, and going into each individual one to see the rest of the songs. It makes no sense, and makes it virtually impossible to create a queue or playlist by genre, unless you have an extreme amount of time and patience. Hint for Sonos if they decide to actually help on this issue (doubtful): Google also breaks it down by album, but the first "album" is actually just a "see all" folder, that shows every single song from that genre or artist. That way you can access all the songs together, without having to click in and out of every album.

When I search for an artist on Google Play and then go into the "My Library" section it only shows the albums.  There is no option for showing all the tracks by the artist in the library.  This is particularly frustrating when searching for an artist that appears on 1 or more multi-artist compilations. When you go into each compilation album it shows all of the tracks on the album (by other artists as well) and it is very difficult to find the track by the searched artist on the multi-artist compilation.  Please add an "All" option that shows all of the tracks.  The functionality should be the same as searching for an artist in the local (indexed) library.  Currently I can't easily search for an artist on Google Play and add all of the tracks by that artist that are in my library.  This should only take a few clicks. Please add the Google Play "Auto Playlists" as well.  There is currently no way of playing the "Thumbs Up" playlist which i

Can someone kindly remind me how to stop Sonosnet from broadcasting its SSID so cell phone wifi and other devices won't see it and try to connect? I did it previously in another location (I have Sonos gear in two houses), but I cannot for the life of me remember how. It’s an age thing.

The new IOS that supports Airplay 2 has released now. Any one knows any news or release date for the Sonos update to support Airplay 2? It isnot good if Sonos is nor already ready but it doesn’t matter; give us a date at least!

Cannot update new sonos beta release on iPhone X running beta ios 12 or macOS 10.14 beta

I have just board a second-hand WD100, because I want to use an old IPhone 4 as a controller /charger (that always is switched on) No I realize that my Sonos system won’t recognize the WD100. Searching google, and this forum, tells me just to add it as a Play 1 or a Bridge, but apparently none of those solutions are working anymore (properly due to a later sonos software update) Are there any way still to use my WD100? Heard something about that a sonos technician could help me downloading an old software version - e.g to my bridge, so I could update my WD100 (with no LAN cable connection) to the newest software. (this has already been reset to “factory settings” (Ending up going back to newest software on the bridge) Looking forward for an answer (And hope you understand my lousy English:P)

I did update 8.6 and now it says there’s a problem during the update. I’ve tried it again and it continues to give me the same message. I’ve clicked more information and tried all the possible solutions it’s given me. It’s error code 1101

Hi. Bought a Sonos One, set it up and everything worked great. Then my stepdaughter came by and logged on to my system from her app, without me knowing it. She had already set up her app to her fathers Sonos system, which included some Sonos Play:1 speakers. What happened then is that my system suddenly included one of her fathers speakers (room). Today my system started to update the software/firmware, but stopped during the process, and showed the message "Error code 30: Soverom". "Soverom" is one of her fathers speakers, miles away. Any ideas on how I could fix this? Thanks.

I have found there is no "history" link or button in Sonos. Although Sonos is fantastic and next to miraculous in so many respects, not having a way to replay a track or retrieve a search is a real shortcoming. Once a number has been played one must re-do the search for the track or the album all over again. Has anyone found a way around this. I would like to petition Sonos to provide a "history" feature.

Is there a way to password protect the room settings? I use Sonos in a shared space on a shared network and someone constantly fiddles with the EQ and loudness settings. I would love to be able to lock these with a pin or password.

I would like to leave Sonos Beta testing. iTunes doesn't recognize it, and I would like to not be asked to download updates each time I use the application, especially when apple will not let me use the app on my phone when I do.

This coupon rebate is the most poorly handled customer retention program I have ever witnessed. An email announcing the planned bricking of several hundred dollars of hardware purchased in good faith from the company. Great, thanks for the warning. Too bad you never asked my opinion or gave me the option of keeping it. Then you offer a single coupon for the 1 to N number of CR100s that I have. Not one coupon per device, no, just one. Although I did have to contact support to find this out. It wasn't communicated in the email announcement. So at this point, I was PO'd at this taking more time out of my day. But wait, here is a form to fill out. It requires all of my personal information (that I have in the account that I've had to create for some strange reason) and the individual product serial numbers. The completion of this step generates a third email that requires a verification of my email address, and that takes me to a screen that tells me the link as expired. Friday a fourth e

What about an option for maximum volume on startup? I often enjoy my Sonos at high volume. However, when using it the next time a neighbour-friendly volume level by default would be helpful.

Hi guys, I have 3 Play:1’s in my livingroom. Two of them were paired and also set up with trueplay for some time now. Today I bought an extra Play:1 to fill a part of the living room where the sounds was less intense. Obviously I can’t make a pair with three of them. But can I do trueplay on them so the sound of the three speakers join well together? How can I do this for all of them? Thanks in advance !! Vincent

Looking for the procedure to re-run the Trueplay calibration.

I have a Play:5 in the kitchen, a Play:1 in the office and the 5.1 setup in the living room (Playbar, Sub and Play:3 satellites). I like to start the day playing radio at a specific volume on all zones, and depending on what I did the day before, I need to manually group zones and adjust volume for all zones, which is quite cumbersome. It would be great to save a preset that does this automatically and even starts playing the radio station I want, or playlist, or artist etc. It could also just be a preset that just adjust volume for some/all zones without affecting currently playing music. Or it could be stopping music on all zones that might not be grouped. On Android there's a 3rd party app called Macronos that enables something similar to what I want, but we need to have it better and on all controllers.

Music Library Settings, Service Settings, Add Radio Station and Update Music Library Now options under Manage are all greyed out and I am trying to update my music library. When I click on About My Sonos System it shows that I have Version 8.1 installed.
