I click on my app to open.... It switches to app, starts loading the app.... The app shows main menu and immediately closes out. EVERYTIME!!!! I have ZERO controls over a expensive system!!! Why is this taking so long to fix!? Should've been fixed immediately or within a week of first signs. Not sit and wait. WHAT IS BEING DONE???

@DiannaL1 You should be able to at least delete the app to install it again. Why can’t you achieve this?

I have found a way that it works, shouldnt have to do it, but it does work. What you should do is disconnect your Wi-Fi from your phone and open up the Sonos app then load your Wi-Fi and it should load just fine. 

Thank you. This worked for me. Didn’t think it would but it did.

Surprised but the tip here worked for the latest round of problems for us too. Disconnect WiFi, launch Sonos app (wait for “No Products Found”) then reconnect to WiFi… seemed to kick it back in to life.

something must’ve changed on iOS/Sonos app to make this happen recently. ​@SONOS please fix this!!

Yep, it's been doing this to me for the past month at least. I’ve updated the app, deleted & reinstalled, turned off Wi-Fi, enabled Airplane Mode, sold my firstborn, joined Scientology, yet STILL the damn thing won’t open properly.

What did  Sonos Support suggest, when you called in?

I have the same issue. Weeks go by where I cannot open the app it is an ABSOLUTE JOKE

The only solution I’ve found is delete app / re install app

iPhone 13 // IOS 18.2

I have the same problem, delete/reinstall works for me but only for a few weeks and then it f***s up again. I’m on iPhone 13 Pro and IOS 18.2.1.

This is unacceptable.

Seems like a weekly uninstall of the app in order to keep using it.

Subpar system at best now..

 

I have practically given up on using the sonos app for playing music.

 

I just link the speakers together in sonos app (when i can actually load it)

Then I airplay from spotify… Works so much better than the glitchy sonos app

If you’re needing to uninstall/reinstall weekly, there is something wrong. You should call Sonos Support directly to discuss it, rather than doing that over and over. Most users certainly are not needing to do that. 

When you speak directly to the phone folks, they have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your network and Sonos system.
