Works well, and easy setup

Good workflow for connecting to Sonos system and the app works well.

A great way to control Sonos

Finally, a reliable way to control my Sonos system from my watch! Now I can skip tracks when I’m in the shower. No idea why Sonos doesn’t provide this functionality, but I’m glad Lyd does!

This is an incredible app and works better for me than the official Sonos app

I’m not sure how this is possible since I assume they use the same api’s, but somehow this Apple Watch app is way more responsive than the official Sonos app on my iPhone 15, and I was even able to start my Sonos playing when I was away from home (which I did by accident; normally I wouldn’t even try because thought I had to be on WiFi, but it worked!) Super well done app

Used to work Great

Only get the forever spinning wheel on my AW. No matter how many times I reboot the Watch and the iPhone. Everything is up to date. Shame, because I used it a lot.

Perfect

Setup in 5 seconds. Works perfectly. Thank you!

Worked for a few seconds … then nothing

I loaded the app on my watch. Started listening to my music. I was able to pause/play and change volume successfully with the app. Then it stopped. No more response to pause/play or changing volume via the crown. I rebooted the watch. It correctly finds my rooms. But when i select the room that is playing music, the controls no longer work. And there is a little icon of 6 dots in the lower left hand corner rotating continually like it is searching for something

Just found this

Love my Sonos and listen constantly. Always wanted to be able to quickly see who was singing. And to control volume. This app gets it done!!

Sonos playbase

App doesn’t work with Sonos playbase. No volume control. Only sound on or off.

Super easy app to control Sonos from my Apple Ultra

I came across this app on an Apple Ultra Users site. I had always wanted to be able to control my Sonos through my watch. Simple installation. Within 5 min it was up and running. Gives me all the control I want from my watch. We'll designed and even easier to install. You must be running a later model phone and watch but that is common. No lag time noticed in switching between rooms. Best money I've spent on an application. The other plus v is it is compatible with Sonos 1 or 2.

Probably PEBCAK - solved

I had a problem where Lyd was not properly controlling grouped rooms correctly - volume was only changing in source room. The developer patiently helped me but could not reproduce my results. I finally fixed it by uninstalling and reinstalling Sonos controller on all my devices and now it’s fine. Good product, very handy and convenient. Great developer.
