The New Sonos App and Future Feature Updates

Holy crap. Just logged into Sonos on a browser user/password and started playing music on my devices. It’s easy, but it’s terribly insecure. Someone could hack my system and start playing music on any or all of my devices at any time at any volume. How do I opt out of this until they have acceptable security?

Isn’t plain user/password security considered insecure these days? I could see hackers breaking into user systems just to cause havoc.

Didn’t Sonos just drop support for an older file system on user’s LAN because they said it wasn’t secure. This seems like a potentially bigger issue.

What’s the betting that your wireless network and router are both secured with a username and password too, eh🤔? 

That’s not a helpful answer.  What’s the betting that my LAN is a secure network.  Even if that was true, one problem does not justify another. This seems to be a big liability for Sonos. Isn’t it relatively easy to implement 2 factor authentication these days? I’m just looking out for potential problems. I would think Sonos would want to address this before the next catastrophe happens. 

Additionally, the security of my network is on me. The security of the entire Sonos user community on the Internet is on Sonos. 
 

Think users are upset now.

Your system has quite probably always been accessible over the internet…

Music services can stream to your devices, the setup can receive updates from Sonos, voice assistant access, Sonos API etc. I don’t know why all the fuss, as long as the the transport method from end to end is encrypted, it’s as secure as accessing your own bank accounts, online stores etc. it’s upto you though to keep your login credentials secure.

My Home window blinds, security cameras, heating system and Philips hue lights, to name just a few things are all accessible remotely over the internet too.

If your Sonos is ever breached, having accidentally disclosed your credentials etc. and you find yourself listening to someone who perhaps plays music not to your taste, then solve it by changing your password, which I assume is what we would all do with our local network security and other smart-home devices too.

You seem defensive, but ok, no problem. Let me know when that wealthy company executive wakes up at 3:00 am to Metallica playing on all his devices at 90 decibels.

Good hackers don’t need a person to disclose their credentials to gain access to their system.

That’s it, I’ll get of my soap box now.

J’ai une solution : remboursez moi les produits que j’ai acheté que je ne peux plus utiliser ! Vous en dites quoi ? ;) 

Odds are you wouldn’t be able to change your password, as the first thing the ne’er do well does is change your password (common in IoT attacks). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

2FA is basic blocking and tackling, and makes a lot of sense for those of us keen on good security.

For its initial rollout, we focused on how we could answer some of the most common requests from our customers, including increased reliability, performance, and faster access to music.

At the expense of breaking features ?  You are kidding right?

Many of you have shared valuable feedback on both the improvements that have made your experience better..

I know you got the corporate script in hand, but that’s a joke right?  Whose experience is better and how?  Did they just upgrade from an 8-track cassette player? I could see that as those things were frustrating as hell - like this new app!

I can’t find alarms in the new app
