I just bought it and it won't work at all. The setup screen is frozen and I'm sorry I wasted $3. I had high hopes for it. Plus, I still have to open my phone to use it, if it worked.

My speakers aren’t named, text overflows off the screen, it large view only 3.5 speakers are shown (rest are truncated), buttons are too close together...I could keep going. Ok, so basic control of Sonos is available as a widget but for everyone complaining about how how it is to open Sonos. “Hey Siri, open Sonos,” it’s 4 words and involves no swiping.
Deleted within 3 minutes of purchasing.

What a waste of money. It just shows as a widget for volume controls that is it. The rest has to be done in the regular Sonos app that you already have. Don’t waste your money

I cannot, even after watching video, get the start up screen to move. This Apattiea60 needs to be updated. Something is wrong for many of the users. Handed over money for nothing.

Widget isn’t available to add. SonoControls is a scam. I downloaded it and it gives you incorrect steps on how to add a widget. Does not work on IOS 15.2
I wasted $2.99 and would like a refund to buy the real Sonia Plus app. Please & thank you

Does not show up in widgets with IOS 14. Please get this updated or I would like a refund.

Very latest iOS. Can’t make SonoControls work at all. Even tried the developer how-to video cited in other review responses. I’ll update this to five stars the moment it does start working though.

Download it last night. I’m disappointed SonoControls is not working correctly. I hit any button on app and it lags to do function if it does it at all. Found your app in an article on Apple News and seemed to be the answer to my needs. Read most of reviews, all dated 2,3 and 4 years ago and most people rave about SonoControls . Is SonoControls out dated or perhaps I installed it incorrectly? Also want to know what the numbers in the upper left hand corner of the speaker ID box on app mean? I do not have a Facebook account nor do I want one so I can’t reach out to your support page. Please advise. Thank You

Everything good except no ability to like/dislike songs.
by MandyNel
Can’t see speakers. Doesn’t swipe down or left or right. Practically unusable. Perhaps it’s an iOS update that did that??
Update: Working excellently again! Thanks for the instructions.
by Notejunkee
Great value for the price. Very happy. You will be too if you want to walk in your home or office, pull out your iPhone, and press play. No hassle, 1 swipe to the widget window, and you're done.

I hated the sonos app volume controls, they never worked when i needed them.
This one works and its easy! Thanks!
by Kingsfan830
Great app. I only wish it had the ability to group and ungroup speakers in the widget. What are the odds of this being a future feature?
by J U L E S
Installed it, and it worked exactly as I expected it to!! I’m in love with the convenience of being able to swipe from my lock screen to access my controls!

This widget works. Simplified volume and makes starting and stopping Music without digging they your other apps. Worth it.
by Drunkenmule
Really amazing app to control my whole home audio with less clicks than the Sonos app. Widget does have a few small bugs though, if the developer could reach out, that would be great

Downloaded it a long time ago but never set it up. Finally configured it - simple process - and it works perfectly on a mixed S1/S2 system.
Not sure how I lived without this widget, and Sonos should be ashamed for not building this themselves.

To those dissatisfied - you should read more closely.
To those looking for an app on iOS that allows you to swipe quickly to your widget screen while locked (or otherwise) and skip songs, adjust volume, see song playing, and a few other small actions... SonoControls is perfect. For me, it eliminates unlocking my iPhone via touchID and then opening he sonos app and then changing the song.
For those who want that, SonoControls works flawlessly as described. Ignore the rankings from people who don’t understand the use case.
Thanks to the dev team for developing something that makes the sonos experience better, and for a reasonable price of $2.99. Good job!

Just what I was looking for. Thank you for your work on SonoControls . Have been using just over a week. I have a 10 speaker installation so far. Makes quick adjustments to audio much more convenient than drilling down to the Sonos app controls. It is Worth the $.
by Tommy Becks
If you have Sonos this is a no brainer. It is easier to access within the widget menu and I like the fact you can adjust the size of the widgets.
It is best for changing volume, pausing or skipping the song. You can't group players within the widget but that's no problem, I don't expect it to. When you click on the widget SonoControls opens anyway!

I love SonoControls! It works great to turn an old ipad mini I have into a music controller. I would remove 1/2 star since the actual app itself is a bit wonky but the widget works flawless as much as I can tell.
