Feature Request - Dynamic island

Feature Request in regards to dynamic island. 
 

Currently, for iOS users you must open the Sonos app directly in order to navigate any controls. Allowing access to dynamic will provide minutes saved to use the control settings. This can include skip to next track, go back a track, grouping of speakers, change playlist or services being used. There are often times I need to pause quickly and I have to go through the standalone Sonos app to turn off. Just a thought for us iOS users.

    Please yes! Integrate fully with iOS. Volume when locked + dynamic island are must haves for such a high end product

      +1, agree with all the above. Lock Screen and dynamic island controls would be great. Lock Screen used to be in place a few iOS additions ago so hopefully can be restored as iOS becomes more open.

        This a must for an app like Sonos. I can’t believe it doesn’t already exist.

        I think I finally figured this out.  I turned off automatic AirPlay. Don’t know if this will work for others but it work for me… I’ve been complaining about this for years.

        You turned off automatic AirPlay 2, and your dynamic island started to show data from Sonos?

        The topic is 1 year old, SONOS , please implement the needed changes! We love your products, but they are being held back by this oversight on the user experience part on iPhones.

        Such an obvious requirement.

        Sometimes it seems to work other times it doesn’t. The formal feedback from Sonos is that you have to close down apps that are using Dynamic Island, then Sonos can use it. HOWEVER - it always works with Spotify, so why not Sonos??!

        Spotify is a player on your iOS device, Sonos is a player on the speaker, and the Sonos app is merely a remote control?

        That should not prevent a correctly designed Sonos app from using Dynamic Island
