Sonos released an update to its mobile app adding iOS Live Activities support, enabling iPhone users to control music and podcast playback directly from their lockscreen without unlocking. The feature includes basic playback controls but does not yet support album art display.
Background
Apple introduced Live Activities in iOS 16.1 to allow real-time updates on the lockscreen and Dynamic Island for activities like sports scores and ride tracking.
