Yes, but only the very newest devices have this capability. Be sure to verify the device has support before you purchase it.
I think only 2 devices support it right now.
Edit: Another option if you have a non-compatible device, but one that has a line in (Connect/Amp/ZP80/100/Play:5) you can get an airplay device (like an Audiocast) and connect that to the line input on your Sonos device and boom. Airplay.
melvinbe, can I listen to YouTube on Sonos if I have an i device with Airplay 2?
Understood. Thanks for the update. I was able to retrieve that ticket and I'd recommend continuing to work with the technician. I understand you want to get this working as quickly as possible, and we want that as well. The more you work on/through that ticket the more robust of an idea the senior technicians can see if/when they get the ticket. Thanks for your patience so far.
Feel free to reach out through a PM if you'd like me to check the status of that ticket for you. I'll be happy to help in any way I can.

Hi kgroninger
Sorry to hear that Sonos has been such a disappointment for you. For me...it's been great! However, as you said and I quote.."In one of my earlier rants on the same thread I said I didn't buy it. It was a gift." That being the case its time to stop frustrating yourself and move on to a product that suits your needs.
Sonos speakers retain thier value quite well. I'd wager you could sell the Sonos One for $140 and the Play 1 for $100 on ebay. May be slighlty less if you haven't taken care of them and/or don't have the orginal packaging. $200 for both isn't bad consideirng at least one was a gift. B4 you ask...no I don't need them; as you can see from my signature :8.
Sonos ins't going to add BT or make any of the other changes you wish unless there is an overwhelming demand that makes Good Business Sense. So until that day is upon us get yourself a speaker you can be happy with and stop stressing. Music is made to enjoy and satisfy...don't let your dissatifaction with Sonos deny you of those pleasures. Here's hopinig you find what you're looking for.
Cheers!

I’m afraid that you are wrong the sonos beam is an AirPlay 2 speaker so therefore you can stream & use the it wirelessly without a line connection on Sonos One, sonos 5 , beam & playbar.
When using bluetooth, you're streaming through your phone/tablet and then the audio is sent to your speaker. Hence your phone/table meets the screen requirement. Sonos, on the other hand, doesn't stream through your phone/tablet, doesn't even need a phone or tablet at all really as they are just controllers for Sonos. Hence it doesn't meet Youtube's requirements for direct streaming. You see that as a disadvantage, understandably considering what you want to do with the speaker, but for a multi room audio system, or a speaker with voice control, it's actually an important advantage.
And btw, you can actually listen to Youtube with Sonos if you had a Sonos product with a line-in connection or designed to work with your TV.

Definitely, anything but Sonos. And I can play music form YouTube through a Bluetooth speaker. My Bluetooth speaker doesn't have a screen.
Hi mdinata,
Normally the Sonos system can play music that's stored on your phone. In cases where tracks are missing, please first check to make sure that the song has been downloaded on to your phone. Note that songs downloaded from music services, such as Apple Music, often have DRM protection preventing them from playing on other systems. The easiest way around this issue is to add your Apple Music account to Sonos. This way you can play their entire catalog whether the songs are downloaded to your phone or not.
Please let me know if you have any questions or continuing issues.
What a **** app. It's so difficult to use and doesn't remember anything I type in. Also, I use Spotify and the Spotify app is so much better than Sonos but you have to go through the **** clunky Sonos app. And Spotify doesn't seem to see what I play through the Sonos app. And I have a 200$ speaker that I can't listen to YouTube on? I HAVE TO PAY FOR YOUTUBE RED TO USE IT ON A SPEAKER I PAID FOR?!?!? thank good this was a gift once I blow this speaker I'll never purchase one of your extremely contorling products. Horrible, horrible, waste of money. Sonos search engine is ****. I type in the exact name of an album or playlist that's available on Spotify and you can't find it through Sonos. You guys need to start over. I've contacted so many suppourt 3 times and all 3 times it hasn't been fixed. FIX IT OR START OVER.
So you said in the other thread. I'd still recommend that you submit a system diagnostic within 10 minutes of experiencing this issue, and call in to Sonos to discuss it. They can help you resolve the issues you're having with your local wifi system.
