Speakers amazing, app not so much
So it seems that the majority of these reviews are of the speakers and not the Sonos app. So let me first say that the speakers themselves are 5 stars but the app is well what I rated it. I purchased a Play:1 today and after an hour returned it simply because of the annoying limitations of the Sonos controller. I love the iOS stock Music app and having to use Music from the controller was not an ideal experience, I couldnt play any songs from my smart playlists, there are no lock screen controls and no way to control anything from my Apple Watch. I realize there is a workaround to get AirPlay working but I dont want to have to spend $400+ dollars to access that function or spend an hour trying to get a hack or other workaround to use on the Play:1. So sadly it looks like Sonos wont be for me which is a shame since Ive wanted to start to investing in a Sonos system for a while now. I just simply cant do it because of the app.
