Reviews for Phonos Ultimate (for Sonos)

← Back to Phonos Ultimate (for Sonos)

So far, this is a dream come true! I've been waiting for sonos to fix their app for almost a year, but what these guys have done is transcendent. It has all the features of the old app that I can find, and then more.. I can control both S1 and s2 systems at the same time! With one app! Full library search, with alpha indexing! My adjacent apps, like subsonic, all show up here! I'm happy with my sonos equipment again! And it only took another company to fix all their problems.. This is awesome!

Very useful, fast, and reliable! Especially on android tablets in my experience.

it doesn't take 3 minutes until my entire system is found, volume applies directly - well that's pretty much all I need

This app is a godsend especially during this time where the Sonos app is in a horrendous state. This app is snappy and smooth when it comes to playing, pausing, skipping, and adjusting volume, it makes me actually want to use my Sonos speakers. The Sonos app has you hit a single button and then wait for so long for the app and your devices to respond it has you thinking it will never work but from now on I don't need to worry because this app has solved those problems. A+++

I've been using this app as a replacement for the Sonos app, and I must say, I'm thoroughly impressed! This app allows me to enjoy music throughout my home with my nine different speakers, and it vastly improves upon the qualities and features of the existing Sonos app. The user interface is pretty intuitive and responsive, making it easy to manage multiple speakers seamlessly. Overall, a fantastic upgrade that enhances my listening experience. Highly recommend!

seems not much different from sonos app. (might be I'm only using the s2 compatible deivces). I area to improve is the support for Japanese/Chinese fonts. all those Chinese characters and Japanese characters are blanked off

Good, but still a work in progress. Refreshing that this app does what Sonos claimed it couldn't. With more development this will be an absolute winner. I still struggle to use my Roam with it, which can be frustrating and the playlists can be a bit awkward at times, but at least they work unlike the Sonos S2 app. Keep up the good work.

This is outstanding. After 8 years, I almost scrapped all of my Sonos devices and moved on due to the useless Sonos apps. Your apps (Android and Windows) have made Sonos usable again. I even bought a new Sonos Era 300 (which sounds great) and am a happy Sonos customer again. Thank you! Sonos should pay you Millions of $ to buy your app and replace theirs. I would buy another 20 Sonos hardware devices if they did that.

I've never been this happy to drop $5. Works the way the Sonos mobile app USED TO work - playlists play, I can edit them, and the units don't randomly disconnect while playing music. Oh, and the volume works on-demand, instead of requiring multiple attempts.

As one of the many people who suffered with the Sonos upgrade last year, this looks like a good way back to normality. It sees all of my Sonos units, including the oldest ones which have been kept separate on a Sonos S1 app. I can browse my music library, including album art, choose radio stations, and although it doesn't look as elegant as Sonos, it works!

Good - fast fast fast. gives you most of the functionality of the Sonos app, plus some extra like manual internet radio stations. that's....about it. oh, it's fast. Bad - no Material design? the UI is not good at all. elements are super tiny and difficult to hit all the time. foldable support is not great. Suggestions - link up volume control to hardware button, add a notification bar with controls, material design, foldable compatibility (so app doesn't restart when opening and closing phone)

Brilliant app. After sonos destroyed their app and made playing local files & playlists hosted on a NAS almost impossible, this app is a lifesaver. Using sonos playlists or playing radio stations this is brilliant
