◆◆◆ a new intuitiv and concise user interface ◆◆◆
SonoPhone is designed to leverage the latest iOS design principles:
- Tap or drag the player on the top and you'll find the players view to select a new player and with volume controls for all players. From here you can also enter Zone Management, where you can group and ungroup players with drag and drop.
- Tap or drag the Track infos on the bottom and you'll be at the big covers screen
- Drag the main menu from any place to the left or right to have instant access to playlist or shortcuts
- volume + progress popups: when changing volume or progress of a song, you get popups telling you the actual values. Stop guessing your desired values today!

◆◆◆ less taps for common tasks ◆◆◆
SonoPad tries to optimize most often used tasks to have the least taps needed. In the end you are able to navigate and control your players much more fluently.

- Touch To Play: are you sick of always beeing asked what to do when you tap a track or album? SonoPhone defaults to just starting an album or song. A long press still gives you access to all options - you can also change the tap default in the settings menu. Want to build a playlist fast? Just set the default to 'always add to end' and off you go ...
- tap an album cover image and the whole album starts to play immediately
- aggregated search: search results are collapsed into one view, so you see immediately in what category you have the best results, without switching back and forth
- shortcuts to most used functions: drag the main menu to the right to get shortcut buttons for artist, albums, radio and musicservices.
- you can control the volume of every player directly from the player selection screen. No need to switch players anymore.

◆◆◆ home automation integration ◆◆◆
- you can start SonoPhone with the 'sonophone://' URL from other remote Apps. Its also possible to hand over a return URL, then a new icon is displayed to return to the automation App.
Further option include to select a default player or default menu, you can read more about all option on my homepage sonophone.net

◆◆◆ Limitations ◆◆◆

- all music services except Google Music are supported
- no playing of music stored on iPhone yet
- no options to set alarms or sleep settings
- no support for discontinued WD100 dock

◆◆◆ Other stuff ◆◆◆
- Sonos is registered trademark of Sonos, Inc.

Golfer Ray ,

Visually better than Sonos app.

This is the answer for those of us running iOS 9 on Gen 5 iPods. Works perfectly and is visually better than the Sonos app. Just needs access to music stored on device in order to warrant 5 stars.

You saved me £347 with this app!

Amazing! This £2.99 app just saved me £347! My old gen 1 play 5 developed a so called irreparable memory fault and the only solution from Sonos after troubleshooting was to trade in for a new model at a cost of £350. I refused and searched for ways to still utilise the speaker even if it was just via the line in. This issue I had was that the Sonos app had the line in settings greyed out because the speaker needed an update that it couldn’t do due to the so called memory fault. I took a silly punt in this app. Incredibly it has paid dividends! The app has opened up the line in settings, streams radio and plays music! Chuffed to bits, I feel like I’ve persevered and won!

Perfect!!!

The Sonos two app was getting slower and slower and taking a lifetime to connect to my system. I was constantly waiting for a connection to my solar system so I could control volume or playlist etc.
Eventually I got fed up with Sonos app and looked for an alternative.
I downloaded the SonoPhone app and had instant access to my system, all its features and playlists, volume controls and it has imported all my music services automatically.
Love it!!!
Only use Sonos app now for Sonos system set up & options.
