Sonos One gen 2 App Guide, available in all languages

Sonos One gen 2 App Guide - The Sonos One Gen 2 is a smart speaker, and a pretty good one at that. With both Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built-in, it's almost guaranteed to satisfy anyone's preferences. The speaker has great, app-adjustable sound large enough to fill a room, and you can also connect it to your home Sonos ecosystem for multiroom audio. The speaker is a bit pricier than other smart speakers we've reviewed, but it may make up for it with its nice design and good sound.

You’ll need to download the Sonos app (iOS, Android, FireOS, Windows, macOS) to set up this speaker (more on that later). A big part of the smart experience of the Sonos One (Gen 2) is its companion app, and you can’t really use the speaker without downloading it. If you don’t like speaker apps and complicated setup processes, we recommend looking into other less intelligent speakers.

Once you download it, you can engage Sonos Radio, which is a nice tool for discovering music within different genres and categories. If you really like it, you can sign up for the paid Sonos Radio HD for more control and HD audio. Also, with the Sonos One (Gen 2), you can set your favorite songs as alarms and have them play in certain rooms of your Sonos ecosystem.

The Sonos app looks like most media players, and you can affect the bass and treble from the app.

The app’s media player interface is nice and easy to navigate, but my iPhone’s lock screen only displays the last song I played in the Spotify app, and doesn’t display anything when I play music from the Sonos app. I can still use the Sonos media player when I unlock my phone, but it’s a quirk nonetheless.

As with all smart speakers, you can browse Instagram and TikTok on your smartphone and the audio will come through its own speakers without interrupting streaming playback through the Sonos One (Gen 2).

Touch controls and the Sonos app aren’t the only way to control the Sonos One (Gen 2). You can also activate it with just your voice. Whether you select Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, simply call out the wake phrase and the speaker’s far-field microphone array should pick it up. The speaker’s mic setup uses beamforming and multi-channel echo cancellation to increase its speed and accuracy. After testing the mic system from various distances, I can confidently say, “Hey Google” to the Sonos One (Gen 2) at a normal speaking volume and trust that it will hear me.

The smart assistant will take commands to carry out a multitude of tasks, including playing and controlling music, setting alarms, accessing information, and more. For details about what each smart assistant can do, visit the Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa information pages.

The business of smart speakers involves sharing access to a lot of your accounts and a general degree of privacy invasion, and you will simply have to accept that to use something like the Sonos One (Gen 2). Luckily you can disable the microphone on this speaker, and the speaker will indicate to you with an LED light that the mic is in fact turned off. Even when it is disabled in this mode, you can still access your smart assistant by pressing and holding the microphone icon on the touch panel.
