Sonos calls its room correction Trueplay. There are two ways to run it, and which you can use depends on your speakers and your phone.
Buying hardware
Compatible Trueplay hardware
Sonos soundbars and speakers that support Trueplay, and which tuning each one offers.
Which tuning can you use?
Beginner
| Tuning | How it works | What you need |
|---|---|---|
| Advanced tuning | You walk around the room holding your phone, which listens to test sounds | An iPhone or iPad. Android can’t run it |
| Quick tuning | The speaker’s own microphones measure the room. No walking | Arc Ultra, Beam Ultra, Era 100, Era 100 Pro or Era 300, with iOS or Android |
Trueplay works with almost every Sonos product except Port, Connect and Roam SL. Portable speakers such as Move and Roam tune themselves automatically.
Before you start
- Update the Sonos app and your speakers.
- Allow the Sonos app to use your phone’s microphone (on iPhone: Settings, Sonos, Microphone).
- For Quick tuning, make sure the speaker’s microphone isn’t switched off.
- Take a thick case off your phone, and switch off noisy appliances.
On Android with a speaker that doesn’t support Quick tuning, you’ll need to borrow an iPhone or iPad. You only need it once per room.
Removing a phone case is common advice rather than a Sonos instruction.
Automatic Trueplay on portable speakers
Advanced
Move, Move 2, Roam and Roam 2 use Automatic Trueplay. They retune whenever you move them and press play, over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. The processing happens on the speaker. There’s nothing to run.
