Pretty sure this has been covered multiple times. Don't get Sonos. Always had issues between apps not connecting (TuneIn, Tidal, Spotify) as well as Sonos Move...

As an alternative viewpoint: do get Sonos. Highly reliable, quick to respond to voice or app commands, and sounds great.

Hi @Yan, I hear you — app connectivity issues with Sonos can be really frustrating, especially when using multiple streaming services like TuneIn, Tidal, or Spotify. While the hardware is generally solid, the software and ecosystem can sometimes be unreliable, and troubleshooting often feels more complicated than it should. For anyone relying on seamless multi-service playback, it’s definitely something to weigh before committing to Sonos.


Agreed. Great hardware but extremely poor software. I’ve got a house and studio full of audio equipment and smart devices. Without a doubt, Sonos is the least feature complete and least reliable.
