trueplay for Android?

Is there perhaps a way to use the speakers themselves to test/calibrate the microphone on individual phones since the Sonos speaker sound is not a variable thing? I'd be willing to pay for a plug in microphone if Sonos is unable to make it work by other means. I will probably begrudgingly use my girlfriends iPhone to calibrate the speakers we have and won't need to re-calibrate for a long time afterwards but it does make me sad there is a shiny new feature I don't get to use on my own phone.

Whilst the speaker should be a known quantity the room isn't, so there's no way of knowing how the room is affecting the signal until you've adjusted the output to allow for the room effects, which is of course, exactly what Trueplay is doing in the first place...

I didn't realise after spending over £3000 filling my house with Sonos sound that future development depended on running it for best experience from an Apple product. I certainly wouldn't have wasted my money on this stuff. How disappointing. Its not rocket science to develop a few core products or even a unified controller app. Samsung have managed it with their adapt sound. Come on Sonos you can do better....
btw I have a Samsung Galaxy note 5 :)

In the meantime does trueplay just require a once off set up and in future does not need an apple thing to run? I could always embarrassingly ask to borrow my mates iphone.

Did you actually read the thread, particularly the official answer? Android devices have huge variability in their microphone characteristics.

After the £3000 spend I'd suggest you simply invest an extra 5% in an iPod Touch 6th generation. In the old days people would often spend multiple times that on exotic cables...

Do that, it is a one time requirement unless you change the location or configuration. Toggling it on/off later at any time does not need the apple device.

thanks for your helpful answer....:8

ECM8000 + Blue Icicle + Calibration File + ARTA I already have a calibrated RTA setup, why can't the Sonos PC app use that?

Possibly because only you and the bloke that works down the chip shop in my village are the only people in the World with that setup?

LOL, so true. I come from auto sound competition, and I used this setup for tuning. There are not many of us SQ auto enthusiasts left it seems.

Regardless, Sonos doesn't even have to support my RTA. Just give me the knobs (Eq, parametric eq, delay, crossover, gain, etc.) and I can fend for myself!

Then, should anyone want to use a setup like this to tune Sonos, the barrier to entry for it is very low. Dare I say cheaper, more accurate, and better granularity than what Sonos could sell a dedicated unit.

"We will continue to explore the use of Android for Trueplay tuning, but can't confirm that it will be supported in the future."

Any new on progress on this front please?
