Is there a way to disallow visitors from controlling the Sonos music ?
Hi, (A question I asked Sonos, with their reply. I wonder if anyone else would support this suggestion, thanks). >>
My Sonos system is great, but we had a party and some of our friends are on the wifi.
A couple of them went onto the Sonos system on their phones and started playing inappropriate tracks and controlling the playlist.
Is there a way to disallow them from controlling the Sonos. I.e. possibly require a user password access.
Many thanks
Kind regards SteveMap.

>> Good morning Steve,
Thank you for contacting Sonos Customer Care.
I am sorry that people were able to access your Sonos system whilst holding a party. We want to try and provide music in the household that is easy for the whole family to access, as this is the case the Sonos system does not have any restrictions to who can access the system. As long as someone is able to connect to the Wi-Fi they will be able to access the system.
In this instance I am going to submit this as a feature request for you as this may be a feature that could be added to the system in the future. I also recommend visiting the Community portion of the Sonos page to discuss this potential feature with other like minded Sonos Customers who may want this feature included as well.
