9th June 2026 - 📲 New Sonos App & Player Updates Now Available! 🔊

Related content:Software

Hey all! We've got a new update live for both iOS and Android. Here's a quick breakdown of what's changed. If you want to see what the teams have been up to check out our App Release Notes here and System (Player) Release Notes here.

As always, this is a Phased Rollout — think of it like a wave; not everyone gets it at the same time. If you're on iOS and want to nudge it along, head to the App Store, pull down on your Account page (the one showing pending updates), and give it a refresh. That usually does the trick.

What's New:

App Update

iOS - 86.00.41

Android - 86.00.35

  • iOS App Intents - You can now create shortcuts that integrate with Siri and Apple Home. This includes playback control, grouping, volume control, and playback initiation.

Player Update

  • Modern: 95.1-78010

We'd love to hear from you! If you've already started building shortcuts, drop them in the comments — we'd love to see what you've come up with. And if there's something you wish App Intents could do, let us know. Your feedback helps shape where this feature goes next. 🙏

    The android release is the always informative “Bug fixes and improved performance” according to the Play Store. But, yeah, not having release notes for such a jump in versions is pretty unusual.

    Is the phased rollout of the previous update already finished? I don’t have the new features promised in the previous update yet. (Still cannot disable SonosNet and I don’t have the improved “About your system” display).

    Did you get the last App update, or this one? Then you might see it.

    Only timeline I've seen is two weeks from the update to the last wave of activations.

    No notice it has finished here:

    Did they forget “security enhancements”???

    Yes, I have installed the app released today and also updated the firmware.

    I have the new features from this update (the IOS shortcuts) but I still do not have the new features promised in the previous update (Sonosnet disable etc.). So I am just wondering if that phased rollout is still running. It would be nice if this process was somewhat clearer to the end user.

    That's bizarre if you have an updated App but still don't have the features from the previous one.

      Well done Sonos 👏. iOS Shortcuts is a nice feature for any iOS App. I was keen to test, so I created a quick test Shortcut to read NFC tag, set volume and play specific radio station in my office. 

      The feature request for more functionality with Sonos Alarms that keeps coming up can now be easily achieved with the iOS Shortcuts:

      eg group players before Alarm fires. Can also be given more logic, so Alarm only fires if you are at home (ie connected to Home WiFi network) in iOS personal automations.

        I wish you would reconsider not adding a desktop app that is compatible with Apple silicon. The old app is being deprecated with the release MacOS 27 Golden Gate. I am aware you can make a web app, but the functionality of the desktop app is not present in the web app.
