What is the latest version of Sonos 1 Controller for Mac, and what are the minimum system requirements?

My High Sierra Mac Pro crashes every time when it attempts to update from 11.5, could that be because the latest version does not work on High Sierra?

Astounding that Sonos does not seem to provide basic info like this on their site.

    After exhaustive testing of standard upgrade options and nstall/uninstall upgrades of fresh installations, I believe the information in the second link, “app requirements” link is wrong as to the Mac OS.

    For the Mac OS, the minimum requirement for the current Sonos S1 Controller (11.6.1) is really System 10.14., not 10.11.  System 10.13.6 is missing a necessary component so the Controller crashes, but that does not occur on 10.14.  

    If it is useful to Sonos I can send some of the various crash reports that were generated by System 10.13.6.  My own problems have resolved with the 10.14 update. If there is anyone who is successfully running Sonos 11.6.1 on Mac OS 13.6 or below, I would like to hear more.

    @buzz and @Ken_Griffiths:

    Sorry, I don’t get it. I’m talking about macOS not iOS and the Sonos Controller is not shown in AppStore on this computer. I had an old controller version from a previous installation that updated itself but failed. The only solution for me would be if there was a downloadable version that runs on macOS 10.13.6 but as far as I can see there isn’t although my computer and OS meet the system requirements.

     

    It’s 2023, but this feels like 2003.

    I wasn’t talking about iOS - I was talking about macOS and unininstalling/reinstalling the App.

    The search/location for the App is the same as last year 😂.

    Anyhow to assist you further, just go here to download it (for macOS 10.11, or higher.):

    Hope it resolves your issue - Happy New Year.👍

      10.13.6 and the S1 download from the link you send does.not.work.  I think that is what some of these posters are saying.

      Maybe someone has fixed it, but I was able to download the file from the link - sadly I don’t use MAC, so cannot test it but the .dmg file seems to be okay.

      Just a quick note for anyone that still has this problem:

      The latest version of the S1 Controller App for macOS (Sonos_57.14-37030.dmg) has fixed the problem and installs and runs normally.
