Spotify and Sonos just made it possible to control Sonos speakers directly from the Spotify mobile app. This new integration was released today, and this blog post clearly explains how to get it all running. The only way to get Spotify to play through Sonos speakers in the past was to use the dedicated Sonos app. Just go to Spotify Music app and search for the music or playlists you want to download, then right-click it and click 'Share' to copy the music URL. Then you can click on button on Sidify Music Converter to paste the music URL. Or you can Drag & drop a song or a playlist from Spotify to Sidify directly.
Giving us access to millions of songs at the click of a button, Spotify is a music service which was revealed to the world in 2006. Similarly, Sonos speakers are some of the best in the business and they are very popular around the world.
In our eyes, there’s no better combination of creations than a Sonos speaker system and the almost limitless music streaming service, Spotify.
However, as with most techy things, Spotify and Sonos can come with the odd glitch. Now and again customers may experience issues such as Sonos being unable to connect to Spotify.
We take a look at what could be causing the issue as well as what to do to get your favourite tunes playing again.
Try this: Simply remove Spotify as a service
We’d firstly suggest simply removing Spotify as a service. You can remove Spotify as service from the Sonos app, go into the app and navigate to services.
Once there, find Spotify, hold down and remove the app, once uninstalled, wait around 10 minutes.
Go back into services and add Spotify again to the list of approved services in the Sonos app.
Try connecting once again and it should be able to bypass the glitch causing the problem before.
Sonos unable to connect to Spotify? Update your DNS server
The Sonos, Spotify issue may the result of an error with the DNS server but, thankfully, you can update it quite easily.
You might be asking what a DNS server is, it’s essentially a filing system for the internet and it helps devices to connect and work.
Using your phone you can go to Wifi and Settings, hold down on your network and press modify network.
Press IP settings and change the DNS server to a public DNS, such as Google DNS (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4), or OpenDNS (208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220).
This should allow it to connect easily as the previous server may have been blocking it. However, if you’re still experiencing connectivity issues with Spotify and Sonos then please don’t hesitate to contact us using our support service here.
