As title.

Can login on the web version (hence i can write this question!), but can’t login to use my Andriod app.

I have reset the password multiple times, have uninstalled the app, have reset the app, have tried to set up a new account… None of these things worked.

 

Help please!

Many thanks

What is puzzling me is that you shuoldn’t have to log in in order to update the controller or system.  I don’t recall when I last had to log in to the app.  I think you are going to have to call Sonos Support or risk a lot more frustration and wasted time.

I find the “call customer service” for assistance false information. I called today and was told to use online support due to no live agents.  Used online support and was told no agents available - the computer prompts did not include my problem.

This SONOS S2 IOS app is garbage.  No matter what I do, I cant log into the app, and the App says there a network problem.  There is no network problem, my phone is working the network fine, and I can log into the SONONS website with my account just fine.    All of this totally defeats the purpose of the Sonos devices.  If I have to spend 2 hours trying to reconnect them to the network and then I cant use the app because it’s junk, what the point of having the devices?  They are probably going into the trash.  Two SONOS One devices.  Paperweights..  

 

First off, calm down.  Everybody here are users like you, volunteers who really don’t need to hear you moan.

Second, what do you mean by “can’t log into the app?”  Unless you are setting it up for the first time, the app requires no login.  Do you mean it won’t connect to your system?  If so, it may be that you are connected to the wrong band of your router.  Sonos is on the 2.4 GHz band.  Connect to that and see if that fixes it.

If not, let us know where the problem lies, but without all the drama.  It doesn’t get you help any faster, and most certainly will cause people to not bother helping at all. 

Telling people to calm down and stop moaning is not really helpful especially when they seem calm and are not moaning but rightly expressing frustrated with the product. Drama? Seems to only be in your head.

Stop the judgements. You are helping no one with them.

“app is garbage”, “because it’s junk”, “probably going into the trash”, “Paperweights” is moaning and drama.  So is replying to a post that is a month old and probably long ago solved just because you don’t like someone’s answer.

Yes it’s fixed, I’ve just tried it a few moments ago and it logged in first time - no issues.

I’ve tried both iOS and Android devices and each are working okay.

If it’s still not working for you, then I suggest perhaps contacting Sonos Support via this LINK.

Hey everyone, I just figured this issue out. When you log into your app account, it's gonna have some weird email like s******@gmail.com or whatever. If you see this, you need to transfer your system to your email. There is an option to do it under the settings. After you do that, it should allow you to use your email account t to login regardless of using the correct password and getting the "incorrect password" issue.

Update, after getting the system ownership transferred to your email, I closed the app, and opened it back up. I was able to connect up to the point where it asks me for my wifi, it detected every wifi in my neighborhood except for mine..............................................................…

Okay, final update. Got it working!!!! After I did the above things I mentioned, and it still doesn't work for you, go ahead and do a factory reset and the rest should be good to go. If it does not work, I guess you can throw the product out the window because this has taken me about 3 hours to figure out.
