Mac
NPAir puts your whole Sonos sytem in your Mac's menu bar. Now Playing, room grouping, and volume, one click away, no separate app window to hunt for.
Free:
• Now Playing with real artwork, progress, and transport controls
• Play, pause, skip, and master volume right from the menu bar
• Room and group switching that reads your system's actual topology instead of guessing at one
• A full music library window with queue viewing built in
• Control Center and media key integration, so your keyboard's volume keys just work
• Siri and Shortcuts support, so "Hey Siri, set the house to Movie Night" is a real thing you can say
• Sleep timer and Guest Mode, control any Sonos system on your Wi-Fi, no sign-in required
Pro: $9.99 one-time. No subscription
Pay once, use it on every Mac you own, for good.
• Individual speaker volume and mute inside a group, without breaking the group apart
• Scenes: save a room layout, volume levels, and EQ as "Movie Night" or "Dinner Party" and trigger it in one click
• Intercom: record a quick voice clip on your Mac, send it to any room, speakers pick right back up where they left off
• Global hotkeys that work from anywhere in macOS
• Launch at login, so it's already running when your Mac is
• A favorites and station browser built right in
DESIGNED LIKE IT SHIPPED WITH YOUR MAC
NPAir is a native SwiftUI app, not a wrapped web view. It follows Light and Dark mode automatically, lives quietly in the menu
bar with no dock icon in your way, and keeps Now Playing in sync with macOS's own Control Center.
YOUR NETWORK. NOTHING ELSE.
No Sonos account. No cloud relay. No analytics, none, ever. NPAir talks to your speakers the same way the official Sonos app
does, local SSDP discovery and UPnP, and that's where it stops. Even Intercom streams over a loopback server on your own
Wi-Fi, never anywhere else.
WORKS WITH S1 AND S2
Doesn't matter which generation your household is running. NPAir speaks the protocol layer underneath both directly.
Requires a Mac on macOS 13 Ventura or later, on the same Wi-Fi network as your speakers.
