Hey guys, please tell me you are going to or have already started working on a control for Sonos from the apple watch, I use my iPhone or iPad all the time but a watch control would be awesome.
There are some third party apps that add watch control

ZonePlay seems to be all I'll need. Cool. It would be neat to see the "tap at the end of your queue" feature, hint.. hint... @Mike

Zoneplayer app is pretty cool - but the Apple Watch app makes it worth every penny.  Great view of picking favorites, selecting rooms, room control and grouping.

Hey....I'm the person who started this thread! I'm sure it would have come up minutes later but I wanted to just thank everyone for the momentum, because however it worked out, we now have ZonePlayer and it's AWESOME!!! I own a tech software company and I'm uber critical of software and this is more than I had ever hoped Sonos would pull off directly and it happened in less than 30 days. Unreal. Thank you!!

No your not the guy that started this thread, I am... lol
yep, would love to see an app for the Apple Watch 🙂
Use Zoneplayer and support the developer.
Sounds like a great idea Chris :)



ZonePlay is here: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/zoneplay/id908958813?mt=8

Is the beta available to users or just developers. If developer does it will it work for users who aren't in beta?

That might be some of the small information tidbits we should get in the next couple of days by the news outlets attending WWDC.
It would be great!

What's the delay?
Delay - Apple not allowing is the delay. Apple currently not supporting outside devices other than AirPlay. Add AirPlay to your Sonos system if have immediate need.
Thanks Chris,  I'm not spending £79 on an Airport Express to reward their isolationist approach lol!  They caved in to Office software eventually.  If they don't make Apple Music compatible I shall stay with Napster too.
