Question

Sonos app stopped recognizing playlists on Tidal

I own a restaurant and use Sonos in tandem with Tidal. For the last 8 months since we’ve been open, the playlists I have built in Tidal have been the only way we have music playing in-house. Out of the blue, when we go to those same playlists, nothing shows up, and the drop down says that “Something went wrong”.

I’ve re-authorized tidal in Sonos, along with all the other recos available. Please help.

The exact same thing happened to me, it started on Friday. I can access everything on Tidal except my own playlists getting a 'something went wrong' message. It's the Android app which I've tried on both tablet and phone. Done all of the usual reboot nonsense. I can access my playlists through the sonos webapp which does display them but sonos support has been pretty useless so far sending me round in circles. 

Me too. I can’t access any of my Tidal playlists.

I have found an alternative way of playing my Tidal playlists using my Roam 2 speaker.

  1. Connect the Roam 2 to iPhone using Bluetooth.
  2. Open Tidal app and play selected playlist.
  3. Open Sonos app and tap the drop down button next to Your System at the top of the screen
  4. Select the Roam 2 speaker from your list of speakers.
  5. Select the Roam 2 symbol at the bottom of the screen.
  6. On the Your System screen select Everywhere and the music is played through all speakers.

I also use this method to play music from my Bluetooth turntable through my Sonos speakers via my Roam 2 speaker.

Spoke with support 11/1/25.   Claimed their programmers are working on it.  No time frame given.   You won’t get this alert on support chat.  Anyone who’s been with Sonos brand at least five years (myself 15+ and patience is waning…) knows this isn’t Tidal, your phone manufacturer, or aliens.  It’s a simple lack of Sonos application quality control.  Recommend scrolling down to the bottom of the support page on chat.  There you’ll find the ceo email address.  If you believe a human will actually consider your feedback drop the mailbox your opinion!

Add me to the list of dissatisfied customers. I have experienced the exact same problem and have tried all the listed possible solutions- to no avail. Thanks to Palco for uploading the problem up the command chain to someone responsible. I look forward to getting an answer. Meanwhile, I’m doing the unthinkable and considering Spotify if this doesnt get resolved soon.

I have Sonos on my Apple phone and have same problem as everyone else.  However I discovered if I scroll down Your System past Your Services, Sonos Favorites, Top Tracks and go to Add Songs to Tidal Playlist, that my playlists are there.   It’s a dumb way to access the playlists.   I should be able to click on Tidal, then My Playlists.     Sonos has a rocky relationship with Tidal.   One of them should just each other and get over themselves.
