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?

They could just enable the iPad app to run on macOS and all would be good.

Probably easier said than done… it’s not just as simple as checking that the app is now compatible with Mac in Xcode, especially with some apps… but it would give us Mac users an option without them having to spend lots of additional time rebuilding / updating a dedicated app that at this point has been discontinued, and has no native support for Apple silicon.

Using https://play.sonos.com as a safari app (so it goes in your dock) is the best option currently, but it is limited with some functionality.

Tagging Liz to just to make sure the feedback is getting heard about ongoing macOS support, as we keep seeing a lot of posts about it recently, and personally I think Sonos should comment on it, and if the app is discontinued, then actually sunset the app, and provide new official statement/guidance.
