Sonos allows multi-account control with controller app

Sonos home audio have been built for family sharing but the downside is you can only use a single account for each music service. That’s about to change with the new Sonos controller app beta that lets you switch accounts immediately without needing to sign in every time you want to switch.

Android users can control the Sonos setup from the lock screen and Playbar owners should notice better sound staging and balancing. The beta is available for Android, Mac, and PC and we should see the finished product before the year ends.

Sonos unveils refreshed Controller app for Android, iOS version to follow

Sonos aims to make it easier for you to navigate through its Controller application with 5.0 version of the app. Central to the app’s redesign is the search function. It lets users look for any artist, song, or album across the many services Sonos uses (such as Rdio, Spotify, Pandora, iTunes, etc.). The user interface is easier to navigate and it lets you control multiple rooms at once. You can choose to play different songs from various services or have everything playing the same thing. A discovery feature has also been added to help you find new tunes. The iOS update will reportedly come out in the spring.
