### 5/5 — Endlich eine Sonos Steuerung die funktioniert

*2022-02-03, version 2.9.0*

Was soll man sagen? Es gibt einfach keine gescheite Sonos Steuerung auf dem Markt. Aber endlich habe ich etwas das funktioniert. Und das schon seit vielen Jahren zuverlässig. Weiter so! 

Wann kommen denn mal neue Steuerungen dazu?

### 1/5 — App + Product

*2021-04-09, version 2.9.0*

Garbage. Would not recommend. The installation app is sluggish and the volume lags with regards to the Sonos product. If you change the song or turn the volume up/down from the controller, one Sonos speaker will turn down and another will stop playing the music all together. Massively disappointed and hope Sonos removes this product from their recommendation list.

### 1/5 — What a Disappointment

*2021-02-13, version 2.9.0*

I gave this DISAPPOINTMENT 1 star because you can’t give 0 stars.  This app barely works and the device is a terrible waste of money. It only seems to correctly control volume, pause and skip; none of the other advertised functions work as advertised. I was expecting more from a company that originated in a country known for engineering. Nothing works as advertised.  I contact the company for assistance and receive one sentence responses i.e. “I’m confused, that should work.” 
They advertise connecting to SONOS Playlists but all that shows are Stations. They claim switching between SONOS Groups, but there are no Groups to find in the app?! 
A note to the SENIC NUIMO company: you should be ashamed and I expect you will be out of business in a year.
I cannot recommend this product.

### 1/5 — What a pile of rubbish

*2020-10-13, version 2.9.0*

If I could give the software negative stars or a zero I would. What a load of rubbish. 12,000 DNS requests a day on my network yet the app tell me it can’t find the hub despite being on the same network and within 15 inches let alone 15 feet. Rubbish rubbish rubbish. 

And then when you do manage to get it working the app on the phone forgets the hub and you can’t add it again. 

Rubbish rubbish rubbish

### 1/5 — Inconsistent

*2020-08-23, version 2.9.0*

When it works it’s nice but very sporadic

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work the way it was originally intended

*2020-08-03, version 2.9.0*

I have a nuimo control that a friend bought from their kickstarter. It’s a very expensive paperweight that doesn’t achieve the products original goals. 
Now it’s an expensive light/speaker controller that requires a hub with a 4 core processor... to control the brightness on a lightbulb!
The app doesn’t even try to connect directly with the nuimo control anymore because it was designed so badly. Now I have a paperweight from a company that doesn’t seem to know how to do anything other than marketing.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-07-24, version 2.9.0*

Onboarding the hub is a complete disaster. Do not waste your time on this.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2020-06-05, version 2.9.0*

Unbelievably frustrating.  The hub will not connect to any of my devices, no matter what I try.  Resetting router, resetting network settings, countless power cycles, re-installing the app over and over again.

Hardware seems to be well built, but it’s worthless as I cannot use it.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2020-04-22, version 2.9.0*

Received a unit direct from Sonos. It requires you to update it before you can use it. Support acknowledges some units cannot be updated, but that you can skip the update. Skipping the update leaves it bricked, doing nothing. Support can’t help you. The app also isn’t optimized for phones with notches. Hard to imagine this getting out the door. Worst hardware device I’ve purchased.

### 1/5 — iOS 13.4 Broken

*2020-04-22, version 2.9.0*

Unlike the change log says... it is physically impossible to onboard this stuff on iOS 13.4. Tried for hours and hours. Followed all of the support manuals and properly reset it. Just terrible.
