Updated: Wear Sonos Control 2.00

Wear Sonos Control is our unofficial Sonos client app for your WearOS watch. You can group or ungroup speakers, control music playback (previous track, play/pause, next track), change volume by group or individual speaker, select music from your Sonos favourites or Sonos playlists in normal or shuffle mode.

An optional phone companion app will handle the communication with your Sonos system over wifi. If the phone app is not installed, or is out of Bluetooth range, the watch app handles the Sonos connection via wifi (this uses somewhat more battery).

This major update contains many behind the scenes improvements and bug fixes. For full instructions on how to get the best from Wear Sonos Control, see the read-me in the phone app. Videos are available showing how to install and use the app.
