Unable to load content

The servers appear to be down tonight. Is anyone else having issues?  Updated the app on my iPhone earlier today and went to play music tonight. But every content section on the homepage says “Unable to load content” and where the graphics are supposed to be for services, favorites, stations, etc. are all black boxes with black lines scrolling across.  Thought it was the update but checked on my iPad without the update and same issue.  Was only able to play music in the room where music had been playing previously by pressing the play button.  None of the other rooms had content queued up so can’t select from any sources. Sonos seems to be having a lot of issues of late.

Update:

Hmm. Sonos Status page now does show an error.

Strangely, however, and happily, the Sonos app on both iOS and iPadOS is working once again (for now?)

I’m still really disappointed in our Sonos experience of late, but at least this first world problem this evening appears to be getting resolved.

Fingers crossed that we’ll be able to enjoy our music tonight as we had intended.

Same for me. I’ve dpent a lot of money on Sonos and it is not working. Even the store I bought it from says they get no support. Crap product!!

“Unable to load content”

…and there’s no way of doing anything about it. Ridiculous 🤨

Same here on iPhone and iPad. Fortunately the Sonopad App is working as is Apple Airplay.

Sonos App has just started working again. I have done nothing other than use alternatives.

Same here on both iPhone and iPad. For over half an hour. Nothing, Not even our own music library. Using airplay to get the radio. 

I do this regularly since the big update as all my favourite stations are no longer available natively due to “licensing issues”. BS!

I have my Sonos 5 for less than 3 weeks and already day 4 had to spend 2 hrs on phone trying to get it to connect to wifi, a further 2 hours changing my country from Germany to UK and now Internal Error 500. How can i get my money back and give the Sonos back to them please? PRetty poor.

Yep, exactly the same issue, cannot connect to music services, showing 500 internal server error. For once I can connect to Spotify but nothing else. Usually it is Spotify I can access. So often the system is unable to connect to anything, the Sonos apps are utterly useless.
