When your Sonos products are connected to a strong Wi-Fi network, enjoy your listening experience without interruptions or dropouts.
Control it all on the app
With all of your streaming services and controls in one place, easily find and listen to your favorite music, podcasts, TV, and more on the Sonos app. Choose where and when each speaker plays with a tap or use voice control to set alarms, check the news, and more.

Stream TV, music and more
Enjoy it all on one system. Add streaming services to the app to play a relaxing Spotify playlist before bed or change the mood of your weekend with a new album on Apple Music. Connect your home theater products to your TV to hear every detail while catching up on shows or rewatching the classics.

Group speakers in different rooms

Connect two or more speakers together so they play in sync.
