Radio France and its many substations (Musique → La Baroque is the one I used to listen to) is no longer reachable on my Sonos (S1). )   Any advice from other users?  Still comes in beautifully on my Imac via Google Chrome but unlike  my Sonos this is not connected to my stereo system.

I’m registered in the developer portal (integration.sonos.com) and successfully registered integration app.   When we tried to login to the Developer Portal yesterday and also connect to api.sonos.com., we getting a login error on of our Sonos accounts saying that are “email or password are incorrect, please try again”.    I reported it already to the 24/7 support agent, but seems I am the first reporting the issue yesterday and also sent  detailed email to developer-feedback@sonos.com - even if it occurred already an hour ago and is still ongoing.    It appears like a misconfigured Okta config on the developer site (getting started link) and the api.Sonos.com pages. Do others experience same issue, or does the login or account registration or password reset on developer.sonos.com / integration.sonos.com work for you?

I have a mini sub and I typically have it turned off out of respect for my neighbors.  When I decide to turn the sub on or off there are about 7 or 8 taps/steps I need to go through to achieve that.  It’s not so much the taps but more about remembering the mapping to get there each and every time.So here is my suggestion….. and Its crystal clear in the image below that I created for you.  Include the sub at the bottom of the output selector page and even though it doesn’t have a volume you could use the slider to adjust the amount of bass.  Plus I can turn it on or off RIGHT THERE!!!!  No more 8 steps to turn on and then another 8 steps to turn it off.  I just saved your customer 16 steps.You can’t make it any easier than THAT!  😊   Plus I know engineers love to complicate things so they could add a toggle under the Sub Mini options to “SHOW/HIDE” the sub control in the Output Selector page if so desired.  That way the Output Selector won’t get too full if the user doesn’t find this h

I know this is a community forum and not santa‘s wish list center. But when it comes to sonos, I noticed, that sometimes you just need to leave your wishes somewhere.So here it comes: Updated Fives with upgraded chips, wifi and mics would be nice.And if you would drop updated Aces with better sound quality, sound swap for all speakers (and not just soundbars - my partner does not like my music taste) and maybe a hdmi dongle for atmos support  (if you don‘t have a soundbar) - I would be very tempted.

So, after 3 failed attempts at using PayPal, Pay in 3 on the Sonos website, I have finally got it to work. Tech company, sells WiFi stuff etc etc. You'd think ordering something would be easy? No, not if using PayPal!I have serious doubts about my purchase, if a company this well known can't even fix their website payments it makes me worry about their products or what support there may be if something isn't right.Anyway, I did order eventually, and followed the instructions of previous frustrated customers. If trying to use PayPal pay in 3, place your order with a credit/debit card. Then when you get to review order, edit the payment method to PayPal. No problem after that. Customer experience trying to get this to work is absolutely shocking, I was at the point of refusing to ever buy a Sonus product due to pure frustration. Not a PayPal issue, the payment would sit as pending every time but doesn't create an order. Let's hope the product is decent, or I dread to think how complicate

So I moved my speaker to another corner in my study and did a true play retune. I noticed I lost all the sub woofer sounds even though my sub mini and SL ones were operating it all sounded tinny. Tonight I did my third reset what I did do was move the sub mini to another corner an actual open corner of the room and did a true play retune then moved the sub mini back to the first corner in my room. The reset meant I had I lost my TV connection. So in order to retrieve everything back I had to turn everything off including the modem. I then restarted the modem followed by the TV once I got the TV going I restated the Arc and sub woofer simultaneously by turning the power points on. I then did the same with my two Sonos One SL speakers. I then physically placed the sub mini to the closer corner of my room. The difference was amazing it now sounds like I am in a movie theatre and action movies you can feel the sub mini reverberating throughout the entire room. I am providing this advice to

Not sure why I didn’t think of this last year, when my Playbase developed the known fault of not being able to connect to WiFi, but today, I moved my upstairs black BT disc (which is paired with my BT Smart HUB 2) to within ethernet cable distance of my bedroom Playbase and plugged the Playbase into the single ethernet port on the back. And hey presto! It’s back on my Sonos system! I had been just using it as my telly speaker without being able to see it or control it in the Sonos App. Now it is back!  I will keep an eye on it in the App to make sure it carries on behaving itself but I don’t see why it wouldn’t.  It’s nice to know that using these discs which only work with the BT Smart Hub 2, can accept a Sonos device plugged into the ethernet port on the back. 

I would love to see a feature in this app that has a volume balance. That is to say, where you can have presets to have different volume balances to create an overall effect of immersion.

I would like to request a feature that allows users to enable full-range surround playback for TV input, similar to the option that already exists under Music Playback settings. Right now, Sonos allows surrounds to operate in either Ambient or Full mode when playing music directly through the app. However, when audio comes from a TV source, surrounds are limited to an ambient role for stereo content. This creates a noticeable limitation when using devices like Apple TV for music playback. Many apps, including Apple Music, output stereo PCM for content that is not available in Dolby Atmos. Sonos treats this as TV audio, which means the surround speakers only play ambient sound instead of full-range audio. As a result, the system does not fully utilize all speakers, and the listening experience feels much less immersive than it should. This is especially frustrating because Atmos content works correctly and engages the full system, while non-Atmos content is significantly reduced in qual

Is this happening to others???I placed an order on Sonos site on March 2nd to take advantage of 25% discound they offered via email. Received a CONFIRMATION with order number.When it didn't arrive in when expected, and their site's order tracking page failed to ever load, I bit the bullet and called them. The rep said that it never shipped, due to issue with credit card. I never received any kind of correspondence to let me know there were any issues.When I called Chase bank to see what may have happened, they had no record of any attempt to run my card.Either way, while I was on the phone with Sonos rep, I placed the order over the phone directly with that same rep, using my girlfriend's entirely different credit card. The rep gave me an order number and ensured me they would send a confirmation by email. Guess what? No email. And guess what else? Tracking page still doesn't load, and the rep I called again today could not find the new order number at all.She said she needed to work o

I get the following error when loging into this forum. Not every time but 90% of times.{"error":"invalid_grant","error_description":"IO error during token exchange"} Any ideas why?

I would like to share some tips on some hardware issues I have faced, and seek clarification for some instructions posted by Sonos.  But every single discussion thread seems to be closed… what’s with that???

 A few times when I try to reply to a post the Send button fails to work.  Usually when, during the writing process, the attempt to add bold characters fails I can count on the Send button also failing to work.  Why is this?

I got this 25% discount offer (illustrated below) in the Sonos app but it never gets applied on the actual site. I got all the way to "place order" but nothing, no sign of any discount anywhere. Is this discount real or just yet another instance in an ever longer line of Sonos "app stuff that doesn't work"? If real then why isn't it being applied in any part of the purchase process?? (Yes I reached the site by clicking in-app & yes I am logged in.)  

does the 25% discount for sonos users apply to the uk as the link only allows the country US

I currently have a Playbar, two Play:1s as surrounds , a Sub Gen 1 and another Play:1 in my wife's studio. If I replaced the Playbar with an Arc Ultra I believe I would have to replace the Play:1 surrounds but not the Sub. But would I still be bale to use the Play1 in my wife's studio and place the replaced surround Play:1s in other rooms of the house? 

Sonos constantly lies about sending return label. I’ve already contacted BBB, and they have many complaints about the same thing.  I was prepared to just buy a new Sonos but then was told it would be replaced and I would receive a shipping label. Turns out it’s a scam. I will not be replacing my items. I will be selling the working ones I have and will never buy another Sonos product again. #SonosLies

I decided to leave the Beta program. I took the relevant steps and got an email saying I had been removed from the program.I factory reset all my devices. I deleted the Beta Apps from my iPad, iPhone and iMac. I installed the regular Apps on my iPad, iPhone and iMac.I managed to connect my new Sonos Era 100 and everything worked fine. BUT THEN, I tried to add the other devices, and a message popped up saying I needed to update the (non-Beta) app. I clicked on it but it wanted to instal the Beta App again!!. This was before I removed Test Flight.I went to Test Flight and removed the Sonos Beta App. I then deleted test Flight altogether. It gave me the same message about updating the (non-Beta) app. When I clicked the button, it told me I needed to instal Test Flight. Clearly not a good idea, since this would take me back to the Beta App.After a long discussion with the person on chat, it turns out the have to escalate the issue to the Betas team and out would rake them a day to get back

Solo para expresar mi absoluta decepción con SOnos y la perdida de casi 4.000 Euros en el sistema. Complicadísima la aplicación y nada que ver conn  lo que me explicaron al comprar sobre poder usar uno de los era 300 en potra habitación además de cuando quiera en el sistema con el resto. Para hacer esto hay que des¡configurar el sistema.Perdoida de tiempo y dinero y lo expresaré en todos los foros que pueda. Demasiado dinero para esto

I’ve owned Sonos on and off since the first generation...not even sure how far that goes back but nearly 20 years.I am just amazed that the company does not seem to be able to progress with the times. I just bought 8 WiiM mini’s for $80 each for my multiroom audio set up, connected to a $1000 16 channel amp. Does Sonos seriously expect me to buy 8 bulky $500 Ports instead to do this? The idea is absurd. Sonos, competitors are going to eat your lunch.Also I bought I Sonos Era 300 and the sound is awful. A $289 Adam T7V paired with an $89 WiiM mini is infinitely superior.So, good bye Sonos. 

The worlds most anoying app. Sonos have ruined the use of this feature. I can not recommend Sonos. They should soon get their app more userfriendly, it is almost impossible to use

I got a restaurant in the gothic district of Barcelona (Spain) since 2010 and I’ve gradually introduced Sonos in the bar and the main restaurant seating area back into 2016, with Sonos 1 speakers and two years later I’ve added the subwoofer. Sound always good until they introduced their disastrous app 2 years ago. Hardware is perfect, it was just a major software F…. Up and the perfect case study for failed corporate PR. I always had to justify to my employees why I was keeping Sonos. Bit by bit they improved the performance but 2 days ago I’ve checked for an update (I do it manually) and updated. The next thing is that I had never experienced such a STELLAR change in sound quality and moreover, the definition, details and 3D sound. All this with (still) 2 Sonos 1, subwoofer paired with them and a third independent Sonos era 100 behind the bar. So those 3 units create an incredibly more immersive sound. Even my waiters confirmed it. The other side of the restaurant is deserved by one S

I want to be able to rearrange my services on the home page of the app. The services I use most are at the end and I have to scroll over to them each time. This has been brought up a number of times before.Since the only two options when posting are "ask a question," and "it is a conversation," I guess I'll make it a question smh...why can't I rearrange my services on the home page of the app?
