ios18

Yes took your advice as I couldn’t see the crash reports, once I reinstalled it worked perfectly , even after it updated the Sonos app after the install.

Also have iPhone 15 Pro and doesn’t work for me. Even when reinstalling the app. Doesn’t crash, shows music is playing but no output on Beam.

Disappointed. I’ve been using it to play music for many years.

When will Sonos release an update to support iOS18? 

BTW MacOS Sequoia 15.0 works just fine. 

Is there a timeline for iOS 18 support? It would have been nice if Sonos had communicated this to its user base… I upgraded to iOS 18 the other day and figured it was just the usual Sonos instability. Not surprised, but still… 

I think you’ll find that this week’s iOS update has brought v18 support. 
Normally Sonos apps work with the latest iOS update but Trueplay breaks and can take weeks to be fixed.  This weeks update has bright iOS Trueplay support faster than normal. 

Well. Where to start. This is two steps forward, one step back...

The latest Sonos iOS app required a Retune exercise for Trueplay as well as reauthorising access to Apple Music, Sonos Radio and other music sources. All good. Reconfigured now.

The upside. Yes, the Sonos app now plays Apple Music tracks.

The downsides:

• Selecting the Sonos Beam as an Airplay device in Apple Music does not work. The app shows that its playing but there is no output from the speaker.
• The Sonos app does not respond/manage the iPhone volume buttons. While the app is active, they adjust the Ringer. This will confuse many people since its not the expected outcome. Playback volume doesn’t change and Ringer volume has been silently changed.
• If the phone is locked, you cannot adjust audio volume when playing audio via the Sonos app. Apple Music. Sonos Radio, etc.
• The Sonos app doesn’t make any controls visible on the lock screen. You need to unlock the phone and bring the app to foreground, to be able to do anything. 

Point1

Don’t have aBeam but my playbase  is working as an AirPlay device . Not much help I know  

Point 2

You’ve not been able to adjust volume using the iPhone buttons for nearly two years I think. Thank Apple for that. 
 

Point 3 & 4
Sonos has no Lock Screen capability at present, and never has. You always need to unlock and open the App. This is a pain and a widget could help, but i doubt that will appear till they fix what they broke in March. 

I’ve not had to use the Sonos app for years, so not encountered these issues with controls.

I would, however, use it more if it supported the above features. 

Calling my points above a wish-list may be more accurate. :-) 

Deleting and reinstalling worked for me on iPhone 15 Pro. However, as a non related complaint about 18.

It has totally remapped my Pandora output via CarPlay. I hate these GD upgrades. 

Since upgrading my phone to iOS18, my Sonos system does not recognize my speakers. 
Nothing works at all, period. I guess Sonos is a paperweight until the Sonos app gets updated yet again.
 

I must say this: the Sonos app is perhaps the WORST app I’ve had the pleasure of working with. 

Whose idea was it to ruin a perfectly good product with S2? Hope that person got fired.
