Question

Stuck on ”allow access to local network” in new app. Help!

Deleted the old app (ios) and installed the new one, but now it won’t get past the ”allow access to local network” message. Even though I’ve allowed access on and off several times.

So basically I can’t use the app at all. Can’t add or edit speakers, nothing. Spotify is now my main Sonos app……

Have tried to reinstalled the app and restarted the phone several times. Anyone with the same issue?

This update is not working for my iPhone 14 Pro. Unacceptable.

Same issue. Had a glimmer of hope as it found my move speaker, but tried to add the amp and nothing. So much for hoping this patch would work.

Did a factory reset on my Move 2 and setup using the Sonos App from my iPad. Worked.  Logged back into the iPhone app and joined existing system.  Worked.  Everything (including Airplay) is connected and working again.

Same issue here. Can’t get past the local network access issue on either my iPhone 14 or my iPhone 6.

Fed up waiting. Returned new Sonos Amp. Really wanted it to work, but not going to wait around for a fix that’s not coming. Maybe in the future.

I was able to discover my Sonos Beam on my network using my old iPhone 6 (still wouldn’t work on my iPhone 14), but then it threw an error adding it to my account (I reset the Beam because of these app issues, so was going through the new setup option). I switched to the iPhone 14 & was able to join an existing setup, but then the Sonos required an update. That required me to sign back into sonos.com & the update fails with the following error…

Sigh!!!
