Display song lyrics in sonos app

There is more than enough room on iPad app to display song lyrics - why can't I see all the ID3 tags in Sonos?

    This is a great idea! Would love to see this implemented. I am perfectly willing to wait as long as it takes to implement something like this. Sonos is ahead of the game in many ways, so they get a pass for missing lyrics for the time being, however long this might take.

    Please Sonos create a lyrics plugin!!
    This is the reason why I (and probably many others) still haven't bought the Sonos sound system!
    Nowadays people want to see the lyrics of there songs..
    This is a must for every music lover.

    Sonos just did a massive re-design of their entire interface and left out lyrics again with no good reason. Overall I dislike the new interface other than easier access to "favorites." Leaves me wondering if they should hire some ex-Apple UI guru to shake things up as more and more people are simply opting to use bluetooth speakers tethered to their smartphones.

    Can't understand why sonos is not entering the discussion with an answer on thus. Disrespect of their user base.

    As a new owner of Sonos products there are a few things which disappoint me. Lack if Airplay support, lack of lyrics, and a dated and "platform independent" interface.

    I'd literally be willing to spend thousands more to fill my home with Sonos devices if even 2 of these issues were addressed. There are more, but these stand out.

    I hope Sonos don't end up stagnating because I've already put a lot of money into their hardware.

    Welcome to the club of Sonos hardware lovers. Unfortunately Sonos has demonstrated that they don't listen much to their customers. You probably will not see the software be set free for great developers to make a super interface but likely more of the dreary same same.
    Having said that, we all hope we are wrong and maybe one day we will be.... keep them crossed!

    Wow - it's been over 3 years since I posted this idea. You would think that would be more than enough time to come up with a response. I could go through a larger critique of what's wrong with the new interface that I'm sure Sonos spent a lot of time on.  Why not just expose the ID3 tags???

    I really love my Sonos hardware but that software is horrible. I am forced to use Google Music and "send" it to Sonos so I don't have to use that app. I use Musixmatch to get lyrics when listening through the Google Music app. Too bad Sonos can't figure out that kind of integration. Please get with it and add it.
