Don’t use this if you actually expect it that it’s a Sonos app. It’s not. it’s a money grabbing ad and that’s it. ### 1/5 — Confusing! *2025-07-22, version 4.9* Focus is on ads, not on helping customers set up a new product. Awful! ### 1/5 — App is a scam *2025-06-09, version 4.8* This app is not made by Sonos and as far as I can tell doesn’t work. I stupidly paid for a “lifetime subscription “. Don’t fall for this scam!!! ### 3/5 — Cf *2025-05-09, version 4.5* Coffee ### 1/5 — Worst *2025-03-11, version 4.5* Ads are diabolical and annoying. ### 1/5 — Unhappy *2025-02-20, version 4.5* I’ve had Sonos since it started in the UK, every update makes it worse, not happy ### 2/5 — Boo *2025-01-29, version 4.5* It’s 2025. Every app in the Apple App Store ought to “just work” by now. What’s the rationale for including basically non-functional apps like this one. It’s mystifying. ### 1/5 — It’s a fraud. *2025-01-10, version 4.5* It appears when you’re looking for a Sonos app but it’s not related. You can’t connect to Spotify and you can’t pair speakers. That’s junk. ### 1/5 — Sonos2app *2025-01-10, version 4.5* Required my credit card to use the app. Said no charge but need your # anyway. Never buy another Sonos product. ### 1/5 — $5.99 week subscription. *2025-01-09, version 4.5* Yeah no thanks. Where's the volume control. ### 2/5 — Not good *2024-12-30, version 4.5* Wanted me to register with a credit card, wouldn’t accept my previous login and kept defaulting to download Gemini despite me having an iphone. All in all, a very poor experience ### 1/5 — Awful UX *2024-12-28, version 4.5* This app is a pain to install and operate and fixed plenty of error messages ### 1/5 — No pairing *2024-12-07, version 4.5* Very upset , the wifi or Bluetooth don’t connect ### 1/5 — Test *2024-11-22, version 4.5* ABC ### 1/5 — All ads *2024-11-13* Super frustrating trying to use this app, screen locked up by casino and game ads every time you try to use a feature of the app, getting the ads off your screen so you can use the app is nearly impossible, there is no simple way to click and reduce the ad size or remove it. Angry I tried the free trial, and it’s too bad, if the app worked as promised, I would have kept it. I feel scammed and cheated and now I have to fight to get this nightmare off my phone and try to stop the incoming charges. I would not trust or buy any app from these developers. ### 2/5 — It doesn’t work!!! *2024-11-03, version 4.5* It doesn’t work!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Total rip off! *2026-08-19, version 6.4* DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!! They bill you weekly and the app sucks big time!!! ### 1/5 — Boo *2026-07-17, version 6.4* Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — Simply put it does not work *2026-05-13, version 6.1* Load it up and it just sits there doing nothing. The Sonos app is poor but this is rubbish ### 1/5 — Doesnt work *2026-04-30* Just want my new speakers to work and I have to mess with them constantly. So I have to use my phone and an app I have to pay for and then I still have ads that block me from adjusting/connecting my dpeakers? Ridiculous. Not sure I will keep this setup, not worth the aggravation! ### 1/5 — Ads in my face just to use my speaker?? *2026-02-03, version 5.7* Not good enough. It’s a controller app for users who already paid hundreds for the actual speakers. Greedy sellers need to keep their products in their lane ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-12-05, version 5.6* Most recent update has stopped the speaker working. Go back to the last version pleass ### 1/5 — Sonos - what have you done!!! *2025-09-28, version 5.3* Used to be such an easy app to use but now I need different apps for different speakers and can’t get my music to play on some! Time for a change! ### 1/5 — New premium update *2025-09-09, version 5.2* Rubbish can’t work it all it’s interested in is trying to sell me a subscription. I cannot play any of my music they’ve made it so difficult and confusing. Selling this system sticking to my Bluetooth one ridiculous. ### 1/5 — s1&S2 SpeaKer Controller *2025-08-16, version 4.9* Betrug, intransparenz,zu teuer finger weg ### 1/5 — S1 *2025-07-23* You have to pay for it which is only done AFTER you’ve downloaded it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Alright *2026-08-16, version 6.4* 5 ### 5/5 — Q te pasa corazón *2025-08-20, version 5.0* Para mi amor de mi vida te amo con todo mi ser Luisa ### 5/5 — Sonos *2025-07-11, version 4.9* Pito1997$ ### 5/5 — Good morning *2025-03-03, version 4.5* Fff ### 5/5 — The most important part of school supplies *2024-07-17* So you need everything that you need for back to school you need important stuff not fun important stuff you need for back to school anything that you need for back to school way important my mom and my dad said focus on school and do not get distracted by friends if they keep talking to you then go tell the teacher instead of talking back to your friends ### 5/5 — Noice *2024-02-16, version 4.2* Swiggity ### 5/5 — Great *2024-02-03, version 4.2* So smart and so workable Thank a lot. ### 5/5 — Quick Connect *2024-01-24, version 4.2* Diese App tut was sie verspricht.
