Can't login to app even though I know password is correct and have reset multiple times

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.

Any solution to this yet? Same problem here. (Logging in desktop app works though, only the mobile controler do not work)

I have the same issue

Generally short for “Customer Service”, aka Sonos support, I’d think. But I’ve never heard of support saying anything would be “fixed in 30 minutes”, either.

Any solutions?

 

Same error here, cannot add new device, login in app fails, password is correct, tried different android versions.

 

Edit: Was able to login this way:

 

App → Settings → System → Transfer System Ownership → I can’t access this account

 

After that, login worked and I can manage/add devices.

It sounds like you simply transferred the system over to the account credentials that you were of, that’s all.
You should not need to do that the next time you add a new, or reset, Sonos product to your system.

No, it was the same Account. 

 

Just the login Procedure is different, email and password in steps.

 

Think they are working on new Version anyway.
