Can't play Tidal Track Radio on Sonos app

Question

Hi, I love my Sonos Five! I moved from Spotify to Tidal to enjoy a real HiFi experience with my Sonos 5, I even started using Sonos iPhone app instead of Tidal to avoid sound quality loss, but I find the Sonos app a bit clunky. A feature I use a lot is to play a Track’s Radio, because I like discovering new artists/tracks by choosing “Go to Track Radio” on the Tidal app, but in Sonos iPhone app (connected to Tidal) I don’t have that feature.

Sonos: When are we going to have that feature on Sonos app? Tidal users really need this!

Thanks in advance!!!

@Airgetlamseems more like an integration issue rather than a source (Tidal) issue, because the entire“Go to Track Radio” feature is not available in Sonos app while it does on Tidal appIt is 100% up to Tidal what features are exposed on their service. It is NOT an app feature, it is a Tidal SMAPI service feature (or lack thereof) that the app exposes a UX on top of.

Tidal is in charge of what ‘feeds’ are available in Sonos. You’d need to direct your request to them. All Sonos does is point the controller to the server maintained by Tidal, and plays whatever is there.
