Compatibility

As long as I downgrade the Sonos Move in the S2 app can I use a Sonos Move on the same system with a Sonos Play 3?

Move will not Register to my account - please help

I have reset the MOVE over 10 times.  I am 2 plus hours trying to reconnect this thing. I have reset my phone, my network, and all my other SONOS products work.   It says the app is updated.   get through the setup process, and the app FAILS activating your sonos move to your system.   NOTE - when I log into SONOS website, I see my move listed.  I see all 7 products.  I am officially lost for options.    The error in the app is “move is not registered” - FIX IT.  I go through the FIX IT process, I hear the chimes, I follow directions, I push the button, more chimes, and then it says “Linking your Sonos Move to you account...”  and then it just spins for a while...and then it says “There was a problem adding your Sonos Move to your system.     Can someone reset my app or delete it from my purchase history??? So I can add new???   No clue.  This sucks.

At my wit’s end with Sonos

I have been a loyal customer of Sonos for years, mainly because I think the sound quality is great, and I love the idea of a whole home system. I am at my wits end though with the awful software that is constantly glitching and cutting out in whichever room I’m in.  I contacted support a while back and they suggested a mesh network might fix the problems.  It didn’t.  I was optimistic about the big new app update, but alas, the problems prevail.Aside from the home system, I have also owned a Sonos Roam, which has just about driven me mad.  I bought this to come in clutch when traveling or outdoors, but it never ever works when I need it. It is the guaranteed buz kill, because I will foolishly go to use it to keep a vibe going, and it literally will not turn on.  Or it will flash its red light that the battery is dead, even though it sat on a charger after the last use.  I then spend countless time trying to get it to “re-charge”, then connect to my Bluetooth, which is a maddening proce

Move 2 wont link to existing sonos system

Hi, I’ve tried connecting my new Move 2 Sonos to an existing Sonos system (Sonos Amp 2 and Sonos sub) however every time I try I get the same error: could not link move 2 to Sonos system. I have tried factory resetting the move 2 , doesn’t work. I have tried turning everything off and back on, doesn’t work.  Really frustrated considering I bought this today and thought it was just plug in, connect and play. Ive tried calling Sonos but they are not open here in the UK on Saturday.

Roam can’t add to system.

Just bought a new Sonos Roam. When trying to connect it, the App finds it and starts the connection process. It plays sounds an I reply by pressing the buttons. Then it’s saying adding Roam to your system. After a while it fails and says “something went wrong try again later “In the app it shows “not registered “ but when trying to fix it, the same happens. Tried resetting the Roam to factory settings.My system is A beam - wired connection,2 one SL, a one and a play1 all in WiFi and have been running in this house a year now. it kind of frustrating now. Does anyone have any good ideas.

Roam - not connecting consistently

I’ve got a Roam, alongside a One, Play:1 and Connect. They are all updated, the Roam has a full battery. Everything connected to wifi. I use Spotify. So all should be honky dory. Only when wanting to use the Roam, it’s such a faff and requires patience, which really shouldn’t be the case. Example, from todayl. I turn it on, it appears up in the app. I add it to the speakers which are playing. Go back to the song, and it removes Roam (never played). Sometimes it comes on after a while. Today I switched all the other speakers off and use voice to get it to play music, and then added the others. Only it’s never really that consistent. Any tricks? Tips?

Sonos Roam isnt charging- using correct power source

Hi- anyone know if there’s a fix for Sonos Roam not charging. It was working perfectly then all of a sudden stopped charging. Nothing I do will let it get any charge or even get enough power to do a reset.  I have two Roams and I’m using the right power adapter and sonos cord. One Roam is charging fine and the other just has a flashing orange light of death.  I have had it on charge for 2 days and can’t get it to respond at all except with the orange light after pushing the button. I’ve called support but just end up on hold for a long time. I’m on hold now as I write this.

new update is terrible

Why have Sonos deleted the timer and alarm functions? It is the reason we bought this product. Will be switching as soon as possible. There is much community outcry I see; Sonos you should reinstate this functionality ASAP!

Sonos Move won’t setup and support is terrible.

This is long, but i think it’s emblematic of what is going on with the company as a whole these days. TLDR at bottom I picked up a brand new Sonos Move (Gen 1) yesterday from the source. Yeah it’s not the shiny new one, but it was a good price and is fine for the back deck and occasional beach days.  This thing would not setup. iPhone, iPad, main network, guest network, nothing. Spent hours looking through trouble shooting docs and trying everything I’ve seen online. At one point i even spun up an SSID *without* security, NADA.  So i decided to give Sonos support a call, strongly suspecting I had a lemon. Despite telling the support agent what i had already done to trouble shoot this device she made me do it all again. Fine, nbd, i expected it. Then she started making me do some truly random and nonsensical things. She said having a guest network was an unsupported configuration, and to turn it off- didn’t help. Then she said to split my 2.4 and 5 ghz networks, despite the move having
