## Sono+ Reviews in United States

### **--- "iOS 18 problems"
Now playing and widgets are not working for me on iOS 18. These were the major reasons I got this app. When I play songs in the app they do not show up in Lock Screen.
-- TxOrj, 2024-10-08

### ****- "Inline widget bug"
I have multiple households associated with my Sonos account. Clicking on the inline widget takes me be back to the app as expected.  However ingressing  into the app this way selects Houselhold 1, even though I use Household 2. I then have to go to the menu and select Houselhold 2. Otherwise great app.
-- Dominik94002, 2023-11-02

### ***** "Love this app"
Thanks for making a great one.  Use it everyday
-- Docsta80, 2023-09-29

### *---- "Doesn’t work"
Widgets never work. Just blanks.
-- soundneedle, 2023-09-29

### **--- "Widgets aren’t working"
All the “quick access” widgets are glitched and blank - no option to choose a player, tried uninstalling, widget is just blank. Other widget works just fine, however is not what I’m looking for.
-- AJFoegen, 2023-09-27

### ***** "A must have if you’ve invested in Sonos audio"
This app makes the whole process of grouping/ungrouping, volume control, track control so much easier.   No more digging through multiple layers in the Sonos app.  It’s all at your finger tips.  Also works as a widget and from the Lock Screen.
-- Ovirto, 2022-12-23

### ***** "Does exactly what I hoped it would do"
I don’t understand why Sonos doesn’t make its own widget, but this works beautifully and is well worth the price. 

I had an authorization issue when I first downloaded the app, and the developer got in touch with me immediately and walked me through it. Super responsive and helpful.
-- power2uth, 2022-12-03

### ***-- "indifferent with the update. i want the legacy widget"
i’m sure the app works fine. but i had previously purchased this for now what’s called the “legacy widget” and now it’s been separated into a different app that would have to be repurchased. 3 stars is for that. not so much for the app itself
-- EXVILLA, 2022-06-18

### ***-- "It’s okay"
I used the previous version and it was pretty simple and felt fast. I think the additional graphics, animated transitions and some other Interface choices all make it feel slower than what I think is the point of the app.
-- wordbk, 2022-01-06

### *---- "Totally changed"
I bought this as a way to quickly group and ungroup rooms without opening a full screen app. I got a new phone and the UI is now different and less intuitive/convenient for me. After digging into the app it seems the developer created a new paid app that does what I previously paid for. This is unfair, if the functionality is being phased out make a new app, but don’t swap apps and make me pay twice! 😾
-- bob1854, 2021-12-13

### *---- "Went from 5 stars to 1 star overnight"
The most useful feature of the widget is gone overnight, volume control. This was the only reason I downloaded this, I could swipe over to my widgets and immediately adjust room volume. Now, it’s just launching a favorite. Please bring back the old version.
-- Brian Yackel, 2021-07-13

### **--- "Grouping doesn’t work"
Bought the app to quickly group speakers when using AirPlay. When you open the tile, and get to the speaker list, clicking on a speaker just makes it flash for a second but doesn’t add it. Otherwise, found no other useful features. Doesn’t even display what is currently playing.
-- JCGReviews, 2021-07-06

### ****- "Group functionality disappeared?"
What happened to the grouping from the widget? I see it suddenly went away, also from the app’s description and screenshots. This is the only reason I recently purchased the app. Please refund me if this is not in error.
Updated from 1 to 4 after legacy widget reappeared.
-- Geva Z, 2021-06-14

### ****- "Will this become an iOS 14 widget? Crashes now"
It has to reside below all the other modern widgets. Any update soon?!

Also, crashes on latest  iOS
-- ovrdrvn, 2021-06-14

### *---- "New version took away the useful widget"
I bought this for one feature: control of already playing music from home and lock screen. The new 2.0 release replaced the useful old style widget with a new style widget that only launches favorites, AND did not update the help or announce this so I spent a bunch of time scratching my head and playing with settings trying to figure out why the documented thing that used to work does not work. Bring back the old widget please. Update: old widget is still there after device reboot. This is the case documented in the help, but the help didn’t make it clear to me that “unable to load” meant the widget is entirely and silently missing from the list of widgets to add, as opposed to the widget is added but doesn’t show up on the today screen or shows up with an error. Even after reading the help carefully I had no idea this was describing the state I was in. The iOS widget configuration isn’t really the dev’s fault but it’s still a really clunky experience.
-- __metamatt__, 2021-05-22

### ***** "Updating my review"
Prompt feedback from the developer and after following his instructions my original widget is back!
Excellent support and still love the functionality!
-- Burgler2112, 2021-05-08

### **--- "Works but iOS 13 widget; can’t show at the top of your widget list in iPadOS"
This widget is disappointing since widgets work differently between iOS 13 and 14. iPadOS 14 introduced a new type of widget. This widget, since it is for iOS 13, cannot be displayed before iPadOS 14 widgets.

Please upgrade it for iPadOS 14.
-- sleight42, 2021-04-11

### ***** "Seems like a good app but I could never get it to run on iOS14"
Seems like a good app and definitely should fill a need for sonos but I could never get iOS14 to recognize app in today widgets. I understood that it would not be on the Home Screen but I understood from the description that it could be added to the swipe right today widgets. This may be possible but I couldn’t seem to get it to work even with restarting the phone several times.

Okay finally figured it out. In iOS 14 after hitting the edit button on the bottom of the widgets you must again scroll all the way down to the book of the widgets and hit the customize button. Got it to work and am updating rating
-- Pcola p, 2021-03-01

### *---- "I just don’t use it..."
Even with it working as intended, it’s not user friendly.  I never use it.  The SONOS app is more convenient.
-- Brian_T_At_Marquee, 2021-02-21

### ***** "Awesome, easy, simple"
Having to navigate in the clunky sonos app is a hassle, and my lock screen controls are constantly disappearing or not working correctly. Being able to quickly swipe left and have access to the controls I need 95% of the time is super convenient. 
I’ve emailed the developer a few times and receive quick and constructive responses. They are pushing updates with great functionality, such as the addition of grouping speakers/rooms, an intuitive way to independently change volume levels for grouped rooms, shortcuts with long presses etc.
