2010-09-29/Comments Off on Sonos Controller for iPad – New App
If you are the lucky owner of a Sonos S5 all-in-one wireless system or an Sonos ZonePlayer and of course you have an Apple iPad, then you must download this brand new free app by Sonos. It effectively turns your iPad into the ultimate controller for your Sonos Multi-Room Music System.
With Sonos and an iPad you can instantly access all the music in your personal collection, including your iTunes playlists, plus thousands of free Internet radio stations. And Sonos works seamlessly with the most popular online music services, including Deezer, iheartradio, Last.fm, Napster, Pandora, Rhapsody, SIRIUS, Spotify, and Wolfgang’s Vault, so you can listen to millions of songs in every room. Play the same song all over the house in perfect synchronization with one tap. Or let everyone in the house listen to exactly what they want — rock in the kitchen, local news in the bedroom and jazz in the living room.
The Sonos Controller for iPad™ lets you control what music is playing in every room in your house, from anywhere in your house. And it connects to the Sonos system over your home Wi-Fi network. It features a multi-pane view so you can see and control everything, all at once—your music menu, what’s playing in every room, the volume, and what’s in your queue. You can browse, search and drag and drop to create the perfect playlist. And do it all in either landscape or portrait mode. When the music is playing, the full-color album art fills the screen so you can see it from across the room.
