Anyone have a solution for slow loading of the Sonos app. Mine seems to take about 90 seconds. Already tried the suggestions from the chat.

Most often, delays are caused by network issues, between your controller and router, or the router and the speakers. I’d certainly check the wifi interference FAQ, as well as performing a Sonos network refresh, by unplugging your Sonos devices from power (or powering them off, if battery connected), and rebooting your router. Once the router has recovered, power back on your Sonos devices. This will give them both a fresh IP address, as well as a refresh of the Sonos OS. Finally, check your system for updates, in case there are any that need to be applied. 

If that doesn’t help, I’d recommend that you submit a system diagnostic within 10 minutes of experiencing this problem, and call Sonos Support to discuss it.

There may be information included in the diagnostic that will help Sonos pinpoint the issue and help you find a solution.

When you speak directly to the Support staff, they have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your network and Sonos system.

If the refresh works the problem may be avoided in the future by assigning DHCP static/reserved IP addresses using your router DHCP Settings page. Do a refresh afterwards.

If the above suggestions don’t fix it you could try a different app like SonoPhone (iOS), Sonos Desktop app.

Do all your other apps connect to each and every Sonos device on your network as well?
