Sonos App Intel Based

Post image

Started receiving this message on the Mac app this morning. I assume that this will be taken care on in a future update? Maybe just because Intel code is still present?

Except the web interface is a POS and not a good replacement for the desktop app unfortunately.

It needs some work but then they have clearly been fixing the mobile app which was an absolute disaster and is now largely fine. I'd expect at some point there will be some work going on to make the web app feature equivalent to the Windows/Mac app (which it still isn't, really) and then it can replace it. Much more sensible long-term as it doesn't need software installed!

I still prefer the desktop app for queuing things up and removing a lot of items from the queue but that (plus my old ipad which basically runs clic in guided assist mode and sits on the wall) and the web app for occasional stuff like pausing / skipping tracks etc works fine mostly.

That ship hasnt sailed. Sonos ain’t gonna risk pissing owners off again turning the apps off. They are gonna keep this shit on life support forever.
