Controllers and Music services

Hello,Why doesn't the application show the alarm clock and sleep timer item on the Samsung S23+ (Android) phone?For Motorola Edge 30 Neo (Android), these items are displayed...Is it the app or Samsung's fault?Thanks P.

Sonos won’t access my music apps. How do I fix it?

Why is this not native functionality in Sonos? Now that you have removed Tunein and replaced with Tunein (new), preroll ads are playing before streams that have zero advertising. Oh and the migrated original Tunein links no longer work via the very buggy play.sonos.com which is determined to play on the wrong speaker, is unable to understand local groupings and laggy as  

I’ve had enough. I’ve been a loyal customer of Sonos for many years, but the latest app has turned a rock solid product into a beta product.Reliability is now intolerable. Dropped songs. Dropping Atmos tracks half way through. Not being able to add albums, it’s a shocking, shocking state of affairs. How can a global, well respected company do this to its customers???? I have had enough. These speakers are now paperweights. I will invest in some other technology. These speakers are now only good for the trash can. 

When I open Spotify on my iPad and select aSonos speaker to playback music why does my iPhone and iPad seem to battle it out to control volume and selection The volume control is particularly annoying as it is a constant fight between the two of them!help please

I have a Sonos Play 5 (gen 1) and Sonos S1 app on a Samsung Galaxy S22 phone. Have been running into problems connecting to my system as it comes back as not being able to be found. At times, I’m able to connect wirelessly using the Windows Sonos S1 app but again I sometimes run into connectivity problems. Have gone through all of the normal troubleshooting steps to no avail. Had a Sonos tech on the phone yesterday and they finally suggested I have Optimum (my ISP whose modem/router only they can look at and change many of the router settings) verify some settings. Well, after Optimum botched things up to the point where I had no access, we were finally able to get my internet and wireless back on line supposedly with the recommended settings in play. However, Optimum suggested there might be a problem with the router and I should visit one of their stores to have it replaced. Problem is that I’m not seeing any issues with any other connected devices and their router is consistently

Since moving to the new Sonos app I regularly get a message on my iPhone telling me that “wifi isn’t connected” when I try to use the app. Wifi however is connected and the system can be turned on through other phones (which also randomly get this problem at different times). The solution currently is to wait for a random length of time….. seconds to an hour….. before the app decides to connect me to my system. The previous app was rock solid for wifi connection. This app is really flakey. Does anyone have a solution or share this problem?

Since the latest awful updates in the IOS app, I can no longer save speaker name changes as the useless ‘Playing Now’ window blocks the Save or Done button. I am trying to rename the ‘Patio’ speaker to ‘Office’. No combination of swipes or slides appears to hide that thing. If I click the back arrow, (the only visible option), the changes are discarded.I do NOT have Homekit or Alexa linked. How can I rename speakers now?I have the latest Sonos S2 build 80.05.04 running on an iPhone 15 Pro Max and all speakers are updated to current software. 

So I needed to check my Music Library settings on my Android Controller App to respond to another post here. Opened the controller and the Manage menu doesn’t have a Music Library setting. Checked the About screen and the controller is exactly the same version as on another Android that is showing it with no issues.Tried a Controller device reboot and still the issue persists.The Alarm option is also missing on the problem controller. 

The current version of the S2 app includes the capability to downgrade to S1. Go to “help and support” and you'll find it.Your products have to be downgraded one by one, and they need to be 2020 or earlier.I recently downgraded my two Play 3 speakers to S1 and now all the features are back and the response is instant, as it should be.Simply reset your products to factory settings, then follow the instructions on the S2 app.Once that is done, install the S1 app and create your Sonos system.If you use the PC app as well, uninstall S2 using Windows Control Panel and download and install the S1 app in its place. It will then find your downgraded Sonos S1 system and connect to it. Everything then works as it should.A note for those of you who use Samba on Linux to share your music library, if you use Samba version 4, you need to add two settings to your ‘sub.conf’ file, then restart ‘smbd’ and ‘nmbd’.The settings are:server min prot

What happened?  Its worked fine since the day I got my pair of Era 300’s.  It was working as recently as last week (8-15-24).  Now I get lossless streaming but not Atmos on music I know for certain is Atmos in my library. I’ve restarted my Mac and my iPhone and the speakers and still no Atmos.  I’ve tried the trick where you move the S2 app scrub bar to get it to correctly show if its streaming Lossless or Atmos music but that doesn't do any good.My iPhone is running Sonos app version 80.06.03 installed on July 30.  The Era 300’s are both running version 16.3.1 (build 80.1-55240).

I can’t tune my brand new Arc and gen 3 sub with Trueplay because the app gets stuck on the “turn your phone around and point it at your TV at eye level” screen; the Continue button does nothing.  Because of this, my new system sounds hollow and awful.  I have heard that the new app released earlier this year in May is the culprit.  I have tried restarting my iPhone 14 Pro Max, and deleting and reinstalling the app.  I thought maybe I could get around this issue on my iPad Pro but I can’t even get get passed the license agreements screen, even after reading everything, the Accept button will not allow me to proceed.   This app seems fundamentally broken.  Does anyone know of any work arounds to get Trueplay working so I can enjoy the system that I paid nearly two grand for? I was really excited about finally getting a Sonos system for my setup, but unfortunately this debacle is making me want to take everything back to Costco and get something else.

The new sonos app on MacOS and iOS do not have a 15 second (or 30 second) rewind button option, or a forward button option which was on the previous app.When listening to a audiobook it was frequently used to replay by a 15-30 second jump backward. Using the scrollbar is difficult when going back a short distance

Exact opposite of everything I’ve Googled.I deleted an album from my NAS. It’s gone. I’ve searched and searched and it ain’t anywhere.Yet it still appears - and plays - from my Music Library. (Yes I’ve updated my Library and yes I’m using updated versions of controllers...)Of course, there’s no way to see any of the underlying data of the file to try to trace it.Anyone else seen anything like this?

My speakers have been offline since I switched my internet connection.  However the app won’t allow me to update the information for the new connection. The button to do so is basically frozen. It won’t work or allow me access to that menu.  Anyone else having this issue?  I have erased and re-downloaded the app, updated it, everything has been done!

When I choose YT Music from the Sonos music menu, all I see is a folder for playlists. When searching for specific songs/albums/artists in Sonos search, I never get any results. The only way I can get it to work on Sonos is just via AirPlay. Am I missing something or is the YT Music integration that limited?

Music skipping around within songs. Forward and back, almost entire verses it seems. System is 2 Era 100s connected with Ethernet now to the same ethernet switch. Gig internet with plenty of bandwidth available. Only happens when streaming from services in the Sonos app (I only use Apple Music). AirPlay seems unaffected. I had the same issue when using WiFi so I switched to Ethernet. I assumed that using Ethernet for both speakers connected to the same switch would fix any timing issues.

trying to connect a nas drive to my sonos system but keep getting an “access denied” message when I input the path, user and pass.

When both Me and my Wife starts a song on Spotify via the sonos app, from our iPhones, the song wil start to Play from the sonos unit for 10 second or so, and then it stops. Follower by an error message saying «we could not Play <name of the song>, the connection to Spotify was lost». This started for a couple of weeks ago, we have not encountered exacly this problem before, been using Spotify via sonos for more than 10 years. Spotify works fine from just the phone, in the Car via Bluetooth or Dock conectoon, or via Denon Heos, All other services with sonos also works just fine. There is only a problem with Spotify with sonos. im thinking may be some settings have changed?any one have any sugestions? thanks on advance!😉Christian

I was about to buy my first SONOS speaker(s) and just came across the comments about the latest App and the issues with it. Of course , now I’m struggling. Should I wait or buy something else. How bad would it be for a first time SONOS user? Is it more a problem for a longtime SONOS customer that lost some features / functions he or she used to have? Thank you. 

I am trying to add LivePhish to my mobile app so that I can play it on my Sonos One. When I try to add the LivePhish app, I am having issues with connecting LivePhish. I can click on the button that “I have an account.” The next page requires me to use a code to authorize my account. It asks that I verify that the “user code matches the code on the decive.” Nothing can appear on my sonos, so I cant verify the device. Anyone have any suggestions on what I’m missing? Thanks in advance!

I looked around to see if anyone had requested this, but I couldn't find it. Apologies if the request has already been done.  In the previous app it was possible to view the streaming format Flac, MP3,... It would be great to have this again (with bitrate indication if possible) 

According to the Sonos ‘Support’ team, I am the only customer they have that has the following issue…Since the recent App update, I was unable to access Apple Music and had to ‘reauthorize’ this. Tried, failed, reported, advised, tried, failed etc. Uninstalled, reinstalled, repeat etcI was told that I could only access Apple Music if I had a paid monthly subscription, which would seem to me to be an illegal practice given I have a fully owned local library of 26,000 songs stored on Apple Music and indeed I can listen to that content on my Mac, iPhone, in my car etc.After testing that theory, it was indeed correct. Only by restarting a monthly subscription to Apple Music would it get past the Sonos gateway, which I don’t require as I subscribe to Spotify.On closer investigation, access to Apple Music through Sonos was then only limited to a minority of my library and playlists. Most tracks are ‘greyed out’ and can’t be accessed. Not just tracks I’d burned

Hi,Sorry if this is answered elsewhere.  This is my first post.  I am really struggling with the app.I have added a speaker to the system but when the app said it was added, I cannot see it in the system.  I just want to add it to a room as an individual speaker but I cannot find it on the app.  Any help would be great.Last question - I have a bunch of speakers in one group.  I want to use one of the speakers by itself.  Similar problem to the above - I cannot choose (or see) the individual speakers of each group in order to select them for a new group.  For example, if I take one of the speakers from the existing room / group and put them in another room, it is still in the same old group (because I cannot see the speaker to ungroup it or add it to another room).It is not obvious on the app how I do this.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thank youCameron 

Hello, Hello, I am having a problem with Bel RTL radio and 2 streaming applications.  Impossible to listen to Bel RTL via SONOS and with the RADIOPLAYER application.  However, if I listen to it directly via the iPhone the station starts immediately without any problem.  With the second MyTuner Pro application, it works but I have to try it several times. I also have to listen to another channel first and then select BelRtl. But again the sound does not start directly, I have to try it several times.Thank you for your helpBonjour,  Bonjour, je rencontre un problème avec la radio Bel RTL et 2 applications de streaming.  Impossible d'écouter Bel RTL via SONOS et avec l'application RADIOPLAYER.  Pourtant si je l'écoute directement via l'iPhone la station se lance immédiatement sans aucun problème.  Avec la seconde applicatio MyTuner Pro, cela fonctionne mais je dois m'y reprendre à plusieurs reprises.
