It seems US has already got the SVC released and seen online that France will get SVC (French?) later this year, but what about the rest of the world? Would be nice to see some kind of timeline for us who don’t want to share what we say with google or amazon.

I would be happy to be able to use the same version as for the US, as English is still the main language in my household and I wouldn’t want a local language version.

@TuxUser Are you using any DNS blocker as they seem to cause an issue with Sonos Voice Control appearing on the controller.

See the following:

SVC is available worldwide in US-English. In the settings go to ‘Services and voice’.

If you are using the latest S2 version of controller with S2 units, it should be available now; the whole world got it at the same time.

@Smilja: for me the issue ain’t where to add voice assistant.

@Kumar: The only options I have are “Google Assistant”, “Amazon Alexa”, and “Not now”.
All devices has the latest firmware and I have the latest S2 app installed (14.8.1.68329240), so it don’t seem the have been rolled out world wide.

@TuxUser, Where are you located?

I’m really excited to announce that Sonos Voice Control is now available globally in US English!

@TuxUser : I don’t have SVC since I am not on S2 so I can't give you the step by step to get it going for you. But for sure, this is a global simultaneous release confirmed to be so by Sonos more than once.

Ps: Using the S2 app to check for updates and getting any that it says are available done first may be the thing you need to do.

@Smilja: Scandinavia

@Kumar: As I already stated, the app is a later version than the initial which is supposed to have SVC support, also all firmwares are up to date. How to install voice assistant in S1 and S2 are more or less the same.

Talked with Sonos support, they verified that it’s only users with a US account that has the SVC as an option, but didn’t know about roll out dates for other regions.

I have SVC and have a UK account. I did not change it to US.

Can you have too many Sonos speakers? 🤔 😆

Not true. I’m in Austria, SVC is available and accessible here without having to tweak the location. Completing the address in your Sonos account might help.
