    There's a great third-party app called Sonobit. I use it on my Apple Watch and love it. https://geo.itunes.apple.com/us/app/sonobit-remote-for-sonos/id1023126989?mt=8

    The sonobit was great, but since the last update it is totally unreliable!!!!

    You may want to contact the developer if issues. There are a number of other apple watch apps as well. I wouldn't think latest update would have had any effect on the Sonobit program.

    Sonobit is still working OK for me on iPhone and iPad both running iOS 10.1.

    Wish there was a first-party Apple Watch app.

    Just checked out this app and the first review isn't exactly encouraging:
    I purchased this app so that I could control my Sonos system from my Apple Watch. What a disappointment! The app does not seem to have a native watchOS app, since it takes a long time to startup. Once I first opened the app, it took several attempts to start Sonos. When I went to Groups. none of my rooms were displayed. I am only able to start/stop Sonos 10-25% of the time, and when it does start, there seems to be a 5 second latency. I just wish Sonos would create their own app.
