However, to enjoy uninterrupted entertainment you will do yourself a favor by subscribing to the Spotify premium services. This is because the free version is not compatible with the Sonos app, has way too many advertisements and does not allow you to download songs so that you can listen to them later. Open your Spotify app on your phone, tablet or computer, play a song and select Devices Available and select a Sonos speaker to start listening. Play Spotify Music on Sonos with Spotify Free Account & Spotify Music Converter Many Sonos users who are also using Spotify Free find that Spotify music can't be played on Sonos with a free account. If we play music on Spotify spereatly it’s fine. But Sonos does not seem to recognise them as seperate accounts and cuts us off if playing through Sonos. As a long distance runner I am starting to get very frustrated as I can’t listen to music without cutting off music playing in the house.
Easily find and play the music you love with Spotify and Sonos. What’s more, you can voice control your tunes with Alexa.
Note: If you can’t find your Sonos speaker in your Spotify Connect list of devices, update your Sonos speaker.
