Control your Sonos system instantly from your Mac's menu bar – no need to open a separate app or switch windows. Menu Bar Controller for Sonos rests discreetly in your menu bar, offering quick and easy access to essential controls like volume adjustments, pausing the current song, or skipping to the next track. When your music is set, the app disappears from view, allowing you to focus on your tasks. Perfect for: • Professionals who need quick music control while working • Multi-room Sonos setups with complex grouping • Power users who prefer keyboard shortcuts, Siri integration, or automations • Mac users who want Sonos control without window-switching All Features: • Mini Player: Effortlessly track music and stay informed about the currently playing song with a sleek, compact window. • Widgets: Add a Mini Player widget to your Desktop showing the currently playing song. • Guest Mode: Control any Sonos system on your Wi-Fi network, even if it's not linked to your account – perfect for offices and vacation rentals. • Song Titles in Mac Menu Bar: Instantly see the current song title without opening the app. • Battery Indicator: Monitor battery life on your Sonos speakers with built-in batteries. • Access all features through an icon in the Menu Bar • Group rooms in your household • Play music from your Sonos favorites / Sonos playlists • Shows current song and artist • Change the volume of every individual speaker • Keyboard shortcuts for several interactions • Use the media buttons on your keyboard • Apple Shortcuts integration • Mute speakers and groups • Skip to the next song or play the previous song • Automatically start the app when you start your Mac • Voice Over Support for visually impaired users • Apple Script support for Apple Automator • Light and Dark Mode support • Touch Bar integration • Control Center "now playing" integration • Detects when the Menu Bar is overfull and shows a hovering icon • Set a sleep timer This app requires you to log in with your Sonos Account. It does not allow streaming music from your Mac to a Sonos speaker (please use AirPlay for this), nor does it support Sonos headphones. Please refer to the official Sonos apps for this. Developed by an indie Mac developer passionate about great user experiences. This is not an official app by Sonos Inc. Sonos is a trademark of Sonos Inc.

I am happy to report that this update is the best so far and really happy that it overall works much better. We have had our many speakers for a few years and they get used every day which the controller is a vidill part of the operation. So it has been ok in the past bust several issues and feel that this was well thought out, especially with some of us who have invested a lot on this brand. Plus I promote this brand a lot and have over the years, so when I give a thumbs up it means something.

I downloaded the app and used it for trial period. I really liked it however, when trying to make the in app purchase it will never take me to an actual purchase site to make the transaction. It just says the purchase will come from my account email I set up. That never happens and then it’s stuck in my menu bar as trial version and only allows you to pause and start the Sonos. I had to shut down and then restart to be able to dump the app into he trash and delete it. I think there is something wrong with the link to make at the purchase. It was fun while on the trail.

I’ve used their watch app for a few years and still like it a lot. But, just discovered this version for MacOS. This is what I’ve wanted most for a long time. So far, I’m finding the interface design, mix of features and options, and performance to be perfect. Love it. Thanks!

This update fixes a bug that briefly pauses playing music when opening the Menu Bar Controller window, among a few other performance and usability improvements.
