Trueplay on Arc ultra

I installed Arc ultra, Sub gen3, and Era 100 today. Everything works except TRUEPLAY. Iphone 14, Iphone 15 pro max, everything is up to date. I only succeeded with my ipad pro, but it's the short trueplay. Trueplay doesn't work with my iphones???

I found a solution for me. I removed my surround speakers (era 100) from the configuration. I tried advanced trueplay it worked. I then added my surround speakers and redid advanced trueplay and BINGO it works. The problem was probably with the initial installation of the surround speakers.

Did you check all your new Sonos products were fully updated - check again for any updates (just in case). Also (if not done already) remove the case/cover from your mobile device. Fully close (slide off screen) any/all other open Apps on the mobile too. Then try again with Advanced Trueplay.

If the issues persist… then I’d wait a few days to see if there are any ‘bug-fix’ updates released and then if the matter is not resolved, it maybe best to reproduce the Trueplay issue(s) seen and immediately submit a Sonos system diagnostic report from within the Sonos App, note it’s reference and contact/chat with Sonos Support Staff via this LINK and see what the Staff can perhaps suggest to help you to resolve the matter.

One further thing - ensure that your Apple iOS devices are using general-release production iOS software only. Sonos do not support any Apple beta OS platforms. It’s been highlighted here in the past where beta iOS setups on mobile devices have caused TruePlay to fail.

Yes my new Sonos products were fully updated. I removed case. General-release iOS 18.1 no success.

What do you mean by “...it’s the short Trueplay” ?

They mean Quick tuning

It’s quick tuning. Ipad pro does not offer a choice between quick tuning and advanced tuning.

Good question.👍

I assumed that the OP was referring to ‘Quick TruePlay’ rather than ‘Advanced TruePlay’ just like we see with the Era speakers? … just a guess though on my part.

It should be fine with Quick TruePlay if that’s the case, as that’s what Android users would use anyway.

However, it would be nice to have ‘Advanced TruePlay’ working with the HT setup here too. Might just be some ‘teething’ issues perhaps, or just something awry with the iOS devices? - A little bit early to know what the issue is at this point, I guess.

It’s quick tuning. Ipad pro does not offer a choice between quick tuning and advanced tuning.

I thought that’s what you were referring to, it depends on if the controller device has been certified for Advanced TP tuning, or not. Android users normally only see Quick TruePlay tuning too.

@Michie123,

I’d leave the setup as it is with Quick TP tuning enabled for now and see if any bug fixes are released in the coming days. If not, then go onto report the matter to Sonos Support via the link in my initial post above.
