SonoPhone for Sonos
iPhone / Musique
Yes. There's a better way to control your Sonos system.
- Speeds up most common tasks (less taps)
- Cleaner, more stable and fast interface.
- Backward compatibility is king (we support Sonos S1 firmware and also iOS15 devices)
- Manage zones and music sources.
You control your Sonos. Not the other way around.

◆◆◆ A new, intuitive and concise user interface ◆◆◆
SonoPhone is designed to leverage the latest iOS design principles:
- Tap or drag the player on the top and you'll find the players view to select a new player and with volume controls for all players. From here you can also enter Zone Management, where you can group and ungroup players with drag and drop.
- Tap or drag the Track infos on the bottom and you'll be at the big covers screen
- Drag the main menu from any place to the left or right to have instant access to playlist or shortcuts
- volume + progress popups: when changing volume or progress of a song, you get popups telling you the actual values. Stop guessing your desired values today!
◆◆◆ less taps for common tasks ◆◆◆
SonoPad tries to optimize most often used tasks to have the least taps needed. In the end you are able to navigate and control your players much more fluently.
- Touch To Play: are you sick of always beeing asked what to do when you tap a track or album? SonoPhone defaults to just starting an album or song. A long press still gives you access to all options - you can also change the tap default in the settings menu. Want to build a playlist fast? Just set the default to 'always add to end' and off you go ...
- tap an album cover image and the whole album starts to play immediately
- aggregated search: search results are collapsed into one view, so you see immediately in what category you have the best results, without switching back and forth
- shortcuts to most used functions: drag the main menu to the right to get shortcut buttons for artist, albums, radio and musicservices.
- you can control the volume of every player directly from the player selection screen. No need to switch players anymore.
◆◆◆ S1 and S2 devices in one app ◆◆◆◆
- If you still have old S1 devices, the time of always having to change apps is over. We simply display all existing players in the network in one list. Grouping is unfortunately not possible, this is prevented by Sonos.
◆◆◆ Limitations ◆◆◆
- all music services except YouTube Music are supported
- no support for administrative features (adding/removing players, music service, ...). You need the official Apps for initial setup of your system, SonoPad will pick up all changes automatically.
- no options to set alarms or sleep settings
- no playing of music stored on iPhone
- no support for discontinued WD100 dock
◆◆◆ Other stuff ◆◆◆
- Sonos is registered trademark of Sonos, Inc.
Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
- SonoPhone now features a Dark Mode, yeah. Per default we will use the system settings, but you can overide this in the app settings
- we fixed a bug where players where shown ungrouped, although Sonos still had them grouped
- we added in-app instructions for the rare cases, where the app cannot find any player on the network
- The minimum required iOS version is iOS15 now (due to Apples latest requirements for AppStore updates)
As always: If anything is not working as you expect don't hesitate to contact support@sonophone.net
