When I open the Sonos app on a recently factory reset iPhone, and try to log in, it redirects me to the login.sonos.com website but I get a blank white screen. On the same phone if I go directly to the Sonos.com website and try to login I get the same blank white screen. I tried in Safari and Chrome cleared my cache, tried private browsing, turned off about 15 other security settings that I could think of. And nothing seems to work. Of course it works fine on my Android phone using Chrome browser. When it is being redirected a small letter I with a circle around it pops up or have a second so I'm sure there's still some security issue but the heck if I can figure out what it is.  It is an older iPhone for whatever that is worth.  Technical details.  Thing I have tried: -Verified JavaScript is Enabled in Safari Advanced settings.-Cleared Safari History and Website Data to remove corrupted cookies.- Attempted login via Chrome (including Incognito mode) with the same blank screen result.-

I have a secondhand sonos play 1 and amp and have done the factory reset but struggling to set up both units. I have downloaded the Controller ap as its an older version but it keeps prompting me to update the app to Play 2 when I have a play 1. How do I set up both units please? 

Hi, For about a 6-9 month now my sonos arc has been acting up. The sound suddenly disapear and I have to reset the entire county power grid to get it back. I have tried wired connection to my router and static IP. Also while playing from spotify there is a lottery if the music ever comes on. Imagine when you have some company over and is supposed to set the mood and you start fidgeting with “how the f*** do I get the music on this junk”.You cant cast music to the arc/”room” if the tv is not on. Really unstable system. I cant really recommend this to anyone.Nothing ever work on this piece of junk.  Anyone with the same problems?Sonos Arc, Sub Gen3 and Sonos one SL Moderator Note: Modified in accordance with the Community Code of Conduct.

I am trying to set up my playbar and use the IR to use with my new TV and remote.  When I try to connect with the app, the app does not let me log in.  It get stuck in the endless loop.  I have reset the playbar, I have reset the router, I have installed and uninstalled the app, I’m using android.  Is there any way to do this?  I have read and researched but none of the suggestions are working for me.  Any help is appreciated

Problem:Almost daily, my surrounds/sub all disconnect from the Arc Ultra and stop playing sound (thought he Arc continues working as expected). When this occurs, the app shows "Needs attention" for the Arc Ultra. Power cycling the Arc Ultra immediately resolves the problem for 24-48 hours.Setup: Soundbar: Arc Ultra (connected via Wi-fi) Surrounds: 2x Symfonisk Bookshelf Gen 2 surrounds Sub: Sub Mini Routers: Asus AX86U Pro + AX58U AiMesh Node Other Sonos speakers in the house use SonosNet via a single Symfonisk lamp that is wired to the router (does SonosNet play any part for the surrounds/sub in this setup?) Things I've Already Tried: Various AiMesh binding options Disabling DFS channels on 5 GHz Setting router 5 GHz control channel to static value Disabling automatic Sonos firmware updates (on the theory that the update process resulted in the disconnect) All the standard Asus Wi-fi tweaks to improve compatibility with Sonos (Airtime Fairness, beamforming, etc.) Rep

HelloI have just purchased a pair of Ace headphones to go alongside my beam (gen 1 with 2x play 3’s and sub mini).I find that the volume on the headphones is very low and I end up listening to both music and swap at almost 100% but I read elsewhere that some people can’t listen above 20% as it’s too loud, i clearly have something wrong.The headphones are running the latest firmware as are the beam and subsequent hardware.  I listen to music through Amazon Music on an iPhone 16 pro max. I have unchecked the sound check button in the music settings and I have unchecked the limit max volume in the phones sound and haptics settings. I have also reset the Ace.Are there any settings I have missed?I struggle to talk on the phone due to a mental illness so without phoning I don’t know how to get this resolved? Is there an online chat? hoping someone can sort this.many thanksMark  

How do I set up Alexa voice commands with Amazon Music on Sonos?

I just bought the Sonos Beam Gen2 in December of 2025 and have it connected to my Samsung TV that I bought 5 years ago.  I went through the setup procedure and the sound quality is very poor especially from my Samsung Blu Ray player.  I used the HDMI cable that came with the Beam and it’s connected to the ARC connection on the TV.  I have to turn the volume on the Beam to over 50 so I can hear and understand what they’re saying especially on the Blu Ray player.  

I have a Sonos One unit, probably 5 years old, that I originally had in one room and moved to another. I changed the room in the app and inevitably it always switched back to the old room.I have tried factory resetting it twice and it still goes back each time. How is this so hard?Fun fact: Sonos software is so great that there’s actually no way to remove a device from your system in the app. 

A number of years ago, I set up a 3-speaker system in my living room of Play 1s. This xmas, I treated myself to a new speaker, this time an Era 100. I just opened the box (it’s been busy here) to learn that I can’t pair the Era with the Play speakers. The existing speakers are set up as one L-R pair of Plays and I wanted to pair the new Era 100 with an old Play to make another L-R pair. I probably should have read more carefully before ordering because it says you can only pair like speakers. Since I didn’t know that, I was thinking to return the Era but maybe there’s a way to connect them that I haven’t thought of. I’d appreciate any suggestions you may have. Thanks. 

After coming home from a month long vacation, my Sonos system shows it’s not connected. This has happened before. I purchased and used NordVPN. Last time I used ExpressedVPN. Every speaker shows not connected except for Move & Move 2, which connects and playing. I disconnected vpn on my iPhone and iPad when we got home today. All of my speakers should show up?

I have an Arc Ultra and a Sub 4.  Currently, the Arc Ultra is connected to the internet via a switch, and the Sub 4 is connected via Wi-Fi. I would like to hardwire the connection to the Sub 4.  Is it just a matter of connecting an ethernet cable from the switch to the Sub 4?  Are there any other steps I must take to complete the conversion? 

The arrangement I have for my 83” wall mounted TV will allow me to either wall mount the Arc Ultra at the suggested 4” below the bottom of the TV or, I can simply place it on top of the console which would be about 7” below the bottom of the TV.  Ascetics, cost, and effort aside, is one preferred over the other for best sound?  In case it matters, the front surface of the TV is about 2.5” forward of the wall.

I’m trying to reset a Connect S1 to Factory Settings so I can use it as an addition to my existing system!! Followed the directions and I’m only getting a flashing white LED alternating with a flashing Green mute button!!

Hello everyone, I just installed 4 sonos amps in my new house and on one of these I connected the hdmi arc cable to listen to the tv with the sonos system, now I would need to send the arc signal to all the other 3 amps to listen to the TV audio throughout the house.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this: I connect my iPhone 16 Pro Max to my Sonos system. Apple Music plays but when changing songs, the audio drops.

System info:Sony 77 A80J TV Apple TV4K (connected to Sony TV via HDMI 4) Sonos Arc Ultra (connected to Sony TV via HDMI 3 eArc)Issue: Turn system on (usually via Apple remote) after everything being off overnight or some period of time and sometimes Sony TV immediately will be using the external audio which is the Sonos Arc Ultra and sometimes I’ll find the Sony TV will be using the internal TV speakers and I have to manually switch TV audio source to the external audio source (Sonos Arc Ultra). Question: Anyone know what causes this erratic behavior and how to fix it so the audio is consistently external audio of the Arc Ultra?

i dont know how to reset my sonos

I’m running 2 Sonos Play:5 pairs with a Sonos S1 app (version 11.15.4) on an iMac-m1 on the latest Tahoe 26.2.  I have an ethernet connection to one of my Play:5s.  My audio is coming out of my m3 via USB and then going through a USB->earphone type plug into the Play:5 that has the ethernet connection.  I had to rebuild the iMac-m3 that I use as my main computer and now find that when I play music on the m3 and then pause or stop the audio, the S1 app drops out of play mode after 15 seconds.  If I then hit play and DON’T play any music it does not drop out of play mode.   Is there any way to make it revert to the previous condition where it will always stay in play mode until I hit stop? Thanks. 

I have moved into a new home. There was a full system in place consisting of 3 connect amps and a PZ100.I am completely new to Sonos, as soon as my wifi was on, i was able to login and played radio stations as the previous house owner and then made the now known cardinal sin of factory resetting everything, because why would you? But as I have been on it previous, I know the system works.The issue I get, is that I can get all the way through the setup till it comes to connecting the ethernet and finding it after. I get the green light, it says press the mute and + button to find, and then it just cannot find it which is absolutely bewildering to me when ive gone through the wireless part easy and its appears in my I’ve tried my phone, the wifes phone and just gettinf frustrated.I’ve spent 2 hours on with sonos support to No real avail, tried several things. Putting my router to mode 2, disconnecting the upnp or something like that and still wont connect. I’ve read some posts about pote

I have discovered two Sonos speakers that have not been used for about 14 years. I think they may be fives. I cannot connect them using an Ethernet cable to my router and I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts. Are they still usable?

Got left internet and my play 3 won't connect to internet

I am selecting a speaker that is playing and then open up the join button and select another speaker or two and select apply. It acts like it is working but when it goes back to the playing speaker it doesn't add the new speaker/s.  It has worked interesting past but isn't working now.TYIASteve 

I have recently updated my Sonos app to S2; unfortunately Sonos S1 is also no longer working.  Neither of these applications allows me to access my i-tunes library and play lists.  I see on Reddit, Sonos communities and other pages that this is a common problem.  When will Sonos be rectifying this issue?
