My Sonos iPhone App can no longer find my Sonos system on my home network.

I can connect to my Sonos system on my MacBook, my iPad and use the voice control to operate it but the iPhone app just won’t connect.

I did try following the in app instructions to update my Sonos system wifi settings to the wifi it is already using but when I try this the set-up fails.

My iPhone 16 Pro Max is running iOS 18.1 (22B83)

  • Yes,  have checked I have updated to the latest Sonos app version - V: 80.11.39 that updated 2 days ago.
  • Yes, “Local Network” is enabled and I am using the same internet connection on my phone as my Sonos system.
  • Yes, I turned off and on again all the speakers and my iPhone.

 

Any thoughts as to why the app has stopped working?

 

 

One additional fix I’ve found that after enduring these same issues for MONTHS!!!!  I use the Sonos Boost to create the mesh network, and it’s now hard-wired to my WiFi hub.  If you go to manage  Networks settings, make sure that it doesn’t have a WiFi connection still active as it seems to confuse it.  As soon as I deleted the WiFi reference everything worked swimmingly!
