Sonos Unveils A Completely Reimagined Sonos App

Sonos unveils a completely reimagined Sonos App. This modernized app and platform puts listeners in the driver’s seat with a personalized experience that makes listening easier, faster and better.

The most extensive app redesign ever by Sonos creates an unprecedented streaming experience that allows listeners to organize their favourite playlists, stations, albums and more from over 100 services on one customizable Home screen. The new Home screen provides faster access to Sonos system controls with one easy swipe up, making tab to tab jumping a thing of the past.

As a leader in sound experience that’s focused on creating a better way to listen, Sonos intentionally redesigned the app on a modern software platform for an easier, faster and better experience that can support more rapid innovation. The reimagined app supports all existing S2 products and is available globally through a software update for the S2 mobile app and via an all-new web app.

“We introduced the world to multi-room music over 20 years ago, and are proudly playing in over 15 million homes today. As we are always pushing ourselves to innovate, and listening to feedback from our passionate customers, we felt now was the time to reimagine our app experience,” said Patrick Spence, CEO of Sonos. “After thorough development and testing, we are confident this redesigned app is easier, faster and better. It once again raises the bar for the home music listening experience, and sets up our ability to expand into new categories and experiences.”

“Today’s streaming experience has become fragmented across multiple platforms due to varied content offerings, algorithmic curation, or simply the desire to not recreate playlists in multiple locations,” said Maxime Bouvat-Merlin, Chief Product Officer of Sonos. “As the only audio brand with an open platform offering extensive choice, Sonos makes it easy to control your system and curate your favorite sounds all in one place. Our reimagined app delivers the industry’s most streamlined streaming experience by bringing a world of content and intuitive control to the Home screen.”

100+ streaming services, one Home screen

The redesigned Sonos app prioritizes a listening experience that’s human – allowing you to bring your true favorites front and center and giving you more control to make your streaming experience your own.

● Get into your music (and off the app) faster: No need to tap between tabs — the new Home screen serves up all your favorite content and controls, all in one place. Quickly jump back into your recently played, browse libraries and recommendations from your preferred services, and fill your home with music and all the sounds you love.

●  Customize and curate: Enjoy unparalleled curation by designing your Home screen to reflect how you listen. Pin rows of your favourite content and services; then move, edit, or rearrange them to your liking.

●  Search every streaming library: Look for an artist, song, podcast, or audiobook across all your preferred streaming apps at once via an easy-to-use search bar that’s always available right on your Home screen.

●  Elevated system control: Swipe up from the bottom of your Home screen to seamlessly control your entire system and access a visual overview of what’s playing on each of your products, quickly group speakers, and dial in on the perfect volume from anywhere in the app.

Accessible from any modern web browser, a brand new web app allows listeners the same seamless system control as the mobile app. The web app will replace the existing Sonos desktop controller and will be available alongside the redesigned mobile app on from 7 May 2024.
