Sonos allows multi-account control with controller app

Sonos home audio have been built for family sharing but the downside is you can only use a single account for each music service. That’s about to change with the new Sonos controller app beta that lets you switch accounts immediately without needing to sign in every time you want to switch.

Android users can control the Sonos setup from the lock screen and Playbar owners should notice better sound staging and balancing. The beta is available for Android, Mac, and PC and we should see the finished product before the year ends.
