ZoneFoundry is a controller for the Sonos speakers you already own. Open it on the same Wi-Fi and it works — no sign-up. ONE SEARCH BOX, EVERY SERVICE Apple Music, Spotify, QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music — no more switching apps. Results are grouped by service; tap "Artists" to jump to an artist, "Songs" for tracks only. SEE EVERY ROOM AT ONCE What's playing in the living room, bedroom, kitchen and patio — and each room's volume — all on the home screen. Group rooms to play together with one tap, and undo with one tap. JUST SAY IT "Play five Fleetwood Mac songs in the living room." "Turn the kitchen down." "Play three tech news stories." English, Cantonese and Mandarin all work, and you don't need to memorise a command format. You can type instead if you prefer. BROADCAST TO THE WHOLE HOUSE "Dinner's ready" — sent to any room or every room, with English, Mandarin and Cantonese text-to-speech. LOCK SCREEN, HOME SCREEN AND DYNAMIC ISLAND Home Screen widgets come in small, medium and large — see what's playing and pause or skip without opening the app. Lock Screen widgets too. Every room that's playing also gets its own Live Activity: three rooms, three cards, with artwork and progress in the Dynamic Island. ONE TAP FROM CONTROL CENTRE Add ZoneFoundry's controls and you get: voice request, play the news, stop everything, run a scene, 30-minute sleep timer, and stop a broadcast that's playing. No need to open the app. SHORTCUTS AND SIRI "Play music in the living room with ZoneFoundry" — in English, Cantonese or Mandarin. Drop playback, broadcasts and scenes into your own Shortcuts and run them from any automation. INSIDE APPLE HOME (requires the ZoneFoundry Bridge) With the optional ZoneFoundry Bridge installed, each Sonos room can appear in the Home app as a light bulb: on = playing, brightness = volume. Use it in scenes and automations. LET AI CONTROL YOUR SONOS Connect Claude, ChatGPT, OpenClaw, Hermes — or any MCP-capable assistant — and ask it to queue music, broadcast, run a scene or set a reminder. Add the connector in your assistant, then enter the 6-digit code in ZoneFoundry's Settings → AI access — no key, no bridge. CONTROL IT FROM A CHAT Link ZoneFoundry to Telegram, WeChat or QQ and control your speakers from a chat message — even when you're not home. YOUR MORNING BRIEFING, OUT LOUD Pick the topics and ZoneFoundry reads the news out loud in the room you choose, in English, Mandarin or Cantonese. Put it on a schedule and it just happens. MUSIC THAT FOLLOWS YOU Pair a room with a HomeKit motion sensor: walk into the kitchen and the music comes with you; leave and it drops out. NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED Core control only needs your iPhone and speakers on the same Wi-Fi. An account is only for remote control and syncing across devices. Requires at least one Sonos speaker on the same Wi-Fi as your iPhone.
