Tap on 'Settings'
Tap on 'Services and Voice'
Scroll down to the bottom and tap on 'Add a service'

'Star' (favourite) certain elements so they appear on your My Sonos homescreen (for example, Listen Live, Continue Listening, Recommended For You)

You can also use Sonos on desktop by installing the Sonos desktop application. Choose 'Select a Music Source,' then 'Add Music Services' to find ��ý Sounds.

At the moment, ��ý Sounds is available on the Sonos controller app within the UK only.

If you are in the UK and unable to find the ��ý Sounds service on the Sonos app, your account may not be registered to the UK. You can find out how to check this on the Sonos Help Site.

How do I use Alexa Multi-Room?

How do I use Alexa Multi-Room?

What is Multi-Room?

Multi-Room allows you to play your favourite ��ý Sounds music, podcasts or radio stations on multiple Alexa-enabled devices at the same time with our Alexa skill. To find out more, have a look here: Amazon Multi-Room.

Please note, the ��ý is not responsible for content on third-party websites.

How do I set up and use Multi-Room?

You first need to set up speaker group/s in the Alexa app. For information and support on how to do this, have a look at the following page: Play Music with Multiple Alexa Devices.

Please note, we recommend using the default group names provided when setting up device and speaker groups.

Once you have set your speaker group/s up you can ask for any ��ý Sounds content to be played on the group, rather than a single device, for example:

‘Alexa, Ask ��ý Sounds to play Radio 4 on the Everywhere group’
‘Alexa, Ask ��ý Sounds to play Desert Island Discs in the Kitchen’
‘Alexa, Ask ��ý Sounds to play Focus Beats on the Study group’

I'm having trouble using ��ý Sounds Multi-Room, what can I do?

You can visit Amazon’s Multi-Room troubleshooting/help page here: Multi-Room help.

You can also check our Known Issues page, which lists problems we're aware of and are working to resolve.

For anything else, tap or click the Contact Us button at the bottom of this page to tell us about your issue. Or talk to us through Live Chat when it’s available.

It’s quick and easy to sign into your ��ý Account on Alexa. Follow this handy step by step guide for tips.

Before you start…

You’ll need to be in the UK and have a ��ý account. If you don’t already have one you can register for one during the account linking journey described below.
Ensure the ��ý Sounds Skill is enabled in your Alexa app. You can find the Alexa app in the Apple app store or Google play store. For help with enabling the ��ý Sounds skill, check the following page: Can I use ��ý Sounds with my Alexa device?
Make sure you are currently using the correct Amazon profile.
- If you have more than one adult profile within your Amazon household, make sure you are on the profile to which you want to connect your ��ý account. You can check this by saying "Alexa, who am I?"
- If you're on the wrong account, just say "Alexa, switch account."
- If you are still being asked to sign in after linking and signing into your ��ý account, make sure you are on the correct amazon household profile and that the profile is linked to your ��ý account. (Make sure the device is setup with your Amazon household profile).

There are four ways to sign in to your ��ý account on Alexa:

How to fast-forward or return to live radio

You can fast-forward by using the corresponding requests, for example “Alexa, ask ��ý Sounds to fast-forward to 9.30pm / 5 minutes.”
And when you’re ready to listen live again, just say, “Alexa, ask ��ý Sounds to return to live.”

How to pause and resume live radio

You can also pause and resume live streams by saying "Alexa, pause" and "Alexa, resume."

Likewise, if you've been listening to something on your Alexa device and want to pick up from where you left off on the ��ý Sounds app or website, just scroll to the Continue Listening section and click on the programme title.
If you're not listening to the last episode in a series, we'll play the next episode automatically when your episode ends.
