High hopes-but a no go

By avimia (Pcmac user)

Was exited to find an app that would work (the app from Sonos is a joke). But, this app is not a good as it sounds. It’s not intuitive. It doesn’t find playlists like it should. When it does and loads them, it doesn’t play anything even though you click the play button. It’s weird the way it does load playlists, then has to load them again in the play list-play side. The really stupid thing is, when I open the native Sonos App and got it to play (finally), THEN this app turned right around and was playing the same play lists. If I turned playlist off in this app, it auctioned on the native app. Just kluge. And while the developer is nice, there is simply ZERO help files out there. So now, I have paid for an app that isn’t working and difficult to use and a native Sonos App that is a joke and doesn’t work correctly at all. Which means, my Sonos system is now all junk to store in the garage. This is infuriating. I would not buy this again.
Saved My System

By r132x (Pcmac user)

Sonos obsoleted all the hardware I use. They just stopped supporting it without warning. I would have to have replaced four devices. Also, every time the force their dysfunctional updates it crashes my system, and I have to reconfigure it from scratch. With this app, all my hardware works again, and I am free of the clutches of Sonos! It is also a much cleaner and faster app than the Sonos controller, and works great!
Perfect

My 2013 ipad mini is my remote, but the 'real' Sonos app no longer supports older devices. this app isn't just a replacement, it is a significant improvement. Definitely worth a few bucks.
App needs updating badly

By galafuzeapps (Pcmac user)

Finding your Apple Music is difficult and the interface to do this needs updating. Albums will load into playlists in disorder and not in order of album. Search mechanism needs work. All in all I would not buy again.
