As bad as Sonos
Scam ware as far as I’m concerned. I’d actually like a refund. I see nowhere in the menus on how to add a speaker. It instantly picked up one of my Roams, but not the other or the Ones. I also done see where to add music services like Spotify or Amazon.
Better than SONOS
Very simple … WAY better than the “genuine” SONOS app.
Useless for Large Libraries
I have a large Apple Music library. Every time I open this app, it takes ages to load the library and won't play anything from it. Doesn't solve any of the problems that plague the official Sonos app in that regard. Feel I've wasted my money.
Great!!
This app is excellent at finding, connecting and controlling my Sonos S1 system. It is also extremely Fast! Overall leaves me wondering why Sonos does not provide this experience with their app.
I recently replaced my iPhone and the S1 app would not connect to my Sonos system. After much time debugging, following the, unhelpful, Sonos recommended procedures, I downloaded this app. Within 5 seconds, this app connected, found all system components, services, playlists, etc. Great job!!

Doesnt work
Cannot find my Sonos devices. The reason i got the app was to replace the useless sonos app, which also cannot detect them. This app’s suggested fix was to consult the sonos app, so obviously that is useless and this was a waste of $4. And yes, I am connected to my network. Thanks.
where is the damn search button
most frustrating app i have ever used in my life….the single most important feature is buried god knows where…complete and total failure UX design
Better than the native app
Does everything I need without the drama. Thanks, Stefan!
Mixed Experience
Found all my devices well enough. Didn’t find my music at all, where another app had no problem. No doubt that can be resolved, but install should be a good experience.
App seems to be device-centric, which makes some sense, but I prefer music-centric. And the search function is a tap-to-menu process, and I prefer to have a search field front-and-centre.

Exceptional
Compared to the Sonos app, this is beyond exceptional. I still don’t understand why Sonos could not have done the same.

I had spent so much time trying to get the two Sonos apps to work! The Sonos S1 app and the Sonos app. They kept having so many issues. I downloaded this app, now it is so easy to run both legacy Sonos devices and new ones. Thank you for this app!
非常好用
特别是在mac上，比sonos的mac 软件好用多了
Great app in many ways
This app is so much better than the Sonos app in general navigation. I miss having a lossless indicator.
Basic but useful
It’s a basic but potentially useful alternative Sonos controller app. First the good: It’s relatively clean. No dragging everything into view and layering windows on top of windows and jumping around like the Sonos app. It may not be recommended app design, but it’s clean design. It even hides the only-needed-sometimes “shuffle” button, which is awesome. And the “favourites” are sorted alphabetically, unlike the Sonos app which chooses to sort them in a useless reverse chronologically-added order. Now for the less-good / disclaimers: it’s SonoPHONE, no support for the larger iPad screen (apparently you want SonoPad for your other devices). There’s no “recently played”, although as that feature has been buggy or broken since birth on the official app, no great loss. Also no sign of the features Sonos chose to remove, like error log and track bitrate/quality indicators. So yeah, it’s a basic Sonos remote control, but given the absolute train wreck that is the official app, you probably need something better for day-to-day use. This will do the job as the kind of “just works” controller Sonos used to make.

It works!
I’ve been having real problems with Sonos losing playlists and access to Music Library. This works for me-takes a while to load but much better than the Sonos app interface with Apple Music
thank you!
i can finally control my sonos speakers again - no lag, no performance issue - it just works. thank you!
Not useful
Does not give you additional features than the Sonos app which is saying a lot because the Sonos app is horrible. Hard to say save your money on a 3.99 app but this would qualify.
Better than the Sonos app
It just works.
New life for components
Perhaps it has always been able and I just missed it but I'd rather credit the newly added grouping and finding lost player support for once again renewing my faith in this app and its ability to make Sonos components function better than the official app. I'd earlier given up being able to use my Play:1 without risking my other functioning components to another of the official apps' "bug fix and enhancement" releases. The latest release of SonoPhone lets me not only find them all and re-group them but also independently adjust their volumes while AirPlaying to them. Well done!

Works eventually. Not worth bothering with.
Good luck to you if you get this working upon buying. Eventually connects after a couple of hours on the iPhone. Add it to your Apple ecosystem (iPad) and it won’t connect again. Maybe in a few hours like with the iPhone. Ultimately, it’s pretty garbage just like the Sonos app which we are all trying to escape. Best advice is not to invest in Sonos period.

Did not work for me
Have a mix of old and new Sonos products. Would not link all speakers. Could only use two speakers together. Also Nord vpn affected the app. Wasted my money
