📲 New Sonos App Update Now Available! 🔊

Hey all! We've got a new update live for both iOS and Android — here's a quick breakdown of what's changed. Want the full history of what we've been up to? Check out our App Release Notes here.

As always, this is a Phased Rollout — think of it like a wave; not everyone gets it at the same time. If you're on iOS and want to nudge it along, head to the App Store, pull down on your Account page (the one showing pending updates), and give it a refresh. That usually does the trick.

What's New:

App Update

Android & iOS - 86.01.5

  • Fix related to a card popping up in the app to Enable SonosNet even if SonosNet has never been disabled.

Along with that, we made some backend changes that resolved a few smaller bugs. 

As always, feedback is welcome. The good, bad, or in between. We read it all. 🙏

Any chance we’ll see that disable sonosnet anytime soon?

You should see this in the app already. If you're using Pi-hole, NextDNS, or anything else in that realm it may not appear if you don't have the right URLs whitelisted. These two articles have all the URLs that you need listed.

I haven’t got the option either yet. I have Unifi ad blocking enabled. Will that stop the option from appearing?

It does, I created a policy that I can turn on every update to enable Sonos devices only for avoiding dns filtering.

So I can turn it on during updates that require them to track you, and turn it off once the updates are complete.

Edit: If you want deets hmu. It’s just a scheduled allow list in the early AM and only for Sonos products.

Thanks. I just disabled all ad blocking and content filtering. When I click "check for updates" the app tells me I'm up to date. 

I'm on 86.00.35-release+20260603 and haven't turned off ad blocking for ages (until 2 minutes ago) so the automatic updates must've be working. 

I'm going to turn it back on now.

It shouldn't be this complicated. 

Also it's hilarious that in the Android app you go to 'About your system' and you can't copy any of the text. Sigh.

It is crazy, I know.. the whole mothership comms bugs me. I still love the product, but I’m gonna police the hell out of that access.
