Sign-in once a day in the new app... what is going on?

Approximately once a day, the app prompts me to sign in.
With the old apps/controllers, I stayed signed in for 15 years... Am I missing something?

Hi all

My apologies - this issue flew under my radar for a while.

This issue has been resolved in previous software updates. However, if you are still experiencing this log-in loop, then you will need to follow these steps to resolve it:

  • Reset the Sonos app (all copies) - User icon » App Preferences » Reset App » Reset
  • Uninstall the Sonos app (all copies)
  • Reinstall the Sonos app

And, if the above does not help:

  • Reset the Sonos app (all copies) - User icon » App Preferences » Reset App » Reset
  • Uninstall the Sonos app (all copies)
  • Factory Reset all Sonos devices
  • Reinstall the Sonos app
  • Set up Sonos system from scratch (Create a New System). Your existing Sonos account can be used.

Please note that resetting all Sonos devices will result in all Sonos Favourites, Sonos Playlists, music services and settings being permanently lost (music service accounts will not be affected, of course).

I hope this helps.

Same issue for me and only on my iPad (iPhone does not have this problem). I am so frustrated that I finally googled this issue and found this post … sigh

Hi @Willyeckerslike 

Thank you for the diagnostics - I actually had a senior engineer reach out out me last night asking if there were any diagnostics for this issue, so I am glad to say that I have forwarded yours directly to him and that should get the ball rolling rather nicely!

Thanks again!

To everyone else: more diagnostics will help!

There’s definitely something odd going on. Went to use the app last night, it prompted for a login which I ignored as I was using my local library. (So had the message login as system owner to see this content on the recently played section.) Left app open on phone overnight, thought I’d login now to submit a diagnostic, and after restarting, no login prompt and the recently played content came straight up… 

Submitted a diagnostic not sure it’ll show much.

Hi @Ian_S 

Submitted a diagnostic not sure it’ll show much. 

Thanks! The logs will probably show something from the night before. Thanks for the diagnostics - I’ll forward them too.

Hi @Bbr92, @Northfarm & @Willyeckerslike 

Thanks for informing us that you are seeing this issue. However, in order for us to investigate, we will need to see diagnostics from those systems affected.

Please submit a support diagnostic after recreating the issue and let me know here when you have done so. If we don’t get diagnostics, we can’t even start looking into this for you all.

Thanks @Corry P for you help with this issue. Touch wood, but still no more login requests to see “recently played” list since resetting the app on my iPhone.
Will certainly submit a diagnostic and report back if it occurs again...
Ross.

@Corry P . Just happened again on my iPhone (It asked to log in instead of showing the “Recently Played” list.
As requested I have submitted a diagnostic then logged in and then submitted another diagnostic.

Since I reset the app on both my iPhone and iPad yesterday I’ve not been prompted to login. Too early to say it’s fixed the problem, but so far a definite improvement. 

Was every day until reset but now asked to sign in again.

I am not * using another second on this issue with support on chat or phone. I have had enough of this BS with the app. Why can’t I send just my diagnostic number in and you look at it on your side. My WiFi and other settings are f spanking good.
