Music discovery is the name of the game
Update: As of now, the updated Sonos controller app has come out of beta and is available on iOS and Android.
Any device running iOS 6 or higher, or Android 2.1 and above, will be able to download the updated app either from the App Store or Google Play, or via an in-app notification.

Sonos has revealed a new controller app that makes it easier to find the tunes you want to listen to through the wireless system.
This will be welcome news for anyone with a Sonos set-up as the now five-year-old app has struggled with the growing number of services compatible with the wireless set-up.
So the new app aims to make things easier - in fact, Sonos wants to make switching on music "as simple as turning on the lights" so there'll be fewer steps between firing up the app and hitting play thanks to a simpler design.

Sonos has taken some design inspiration from iOS 7, so the app is a lot cleaner and flatter than its predecessor.
