The new app seems all over the place. Very difficult to navigate. Not user friendly. For example if I want to play the next song on my playlist instead of playing on the existing speaker it starts to play in a different room on a different speaker. Each time I have to manually correct it with 2-3 steps to just get it to play the next song. I end up with 2-3 different speakers playing different songs on the same playlist. When I go into Sonos guide to the new app it’s a blank. Very frustrating. My Sonos is now a source of frustration not pleasure or relaxation with my favourite music. The team that designed the new app should be demoted. Either they do not know what they are doing or have never used the Sonos app before. Holding out to purchase any further Sonos products until they fix this new app. Sonos please fix it.

This is a bug that many people have described here. I agree it is super frustrating, I’ve experienced it. Sonos rushed out a POS app cause they need to sell some headphones. They will hopefully fix these bugs soon.

I’ve been using the ios app Sonophone, it’s a pretty good alternative to the sonos app for now. Think it cost me $2. If you search here you may find some other posters who use sonophone so you can get other opinions on it if you decide to consider it.


It’s indescribably awful. Super slow to respond to anything, but the biggest issues is selecting a new song or skipping tracks causes the new song to start playing on a different set of speakers that weren’t being used. 


Same issue. This is so frustrating. I am listening on my Move, for example, I want to play a total different song from another artist and album. I find song and click playing thinking it will be on my Move. Instead it goes to my Den and I have manually move it over to the Move. This is so bad.
