Login Redirect Not Working

When I open the Sonos app on a recently factory reset iPhone, and try to log in, it redirects me to the login.sonos.com website but I get a blank white screen. On the same phone if I go directly to the Sonos.com website and try to login I get the same blank white screen. I tried in Safari and Chrome cleared my cache, tried private browsing, turned off about 15 other security settings that I could think of. And nothing seems to work. Of course it works fine on my Android phone using Chrome browser. 

When it is being redirected a small letter I with a circle around it pops up or have a second so I'm sure there's still some security issue but the heck if I can figure out what it is.  It is an older iPhone for whatever that is worth. 

 

Technical details.  Thing I have tried: 

-Verified JavaScript is Enabled in Safari Advanced settings.

-Cleared Safari History and Website Data to remove corrupted cookies.

- Attempted login via Chrome (including Incognito mode) with the same blank screen result.

- connected to different Wi-Fi network

- Uninstalled and reinstalled the Sonos app multiple times.

-limit IP Address Tracking.

- toggled Private Wi-Fi Address OFF for the local network.

Attempted to bypass the redirect by using "Request Desktop Website" in the mobile browser.

Modified DNS settings to Manual (Google DNS 8.8.8.8) to rule out router-level filtering.

Attempted login in both Light and Dark modes to rule out UI rendering bugs

Typed the login URL directly into the browser instead of trying the redirect

Seems odd, certainly.  

I would recommend that you submit a system diagnostic within 10 minutes of experiencing this problem, from that iPhone, and call Sonos Support to discuss it. Don’t post the resulting diagnostic number here, their lawyers get sensitive about GDPR.

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.

Any chance you’re running a VPN, work profile, virus protection app, or any other port blocking software on this phone?

Unfortunately not.  I found an old iPhone so I could use Trueplay (since that is not supported on my Samsung phone).  I did a factory reset on the iPhone, downloaded the Sonos software and Chrome and no other software at this point.  So unless there are some random apple software running I haven't done anything for additional protection.

How old is the iPhone? You need to be on iOS17 or above to use the new Sonos app:

It is an iPhone x max so definitely older hardware but I'm running iOS 18.
