BBC podcasts, music mixes and radio are now available for listeners with Sonos speakers in the UK by using the Sonos app for smartphones and tablets.
There is already an average weekly audience of 3.6 million for BBC Sounds across mobile, TV, website and voice-activated devices, and this will make listening even easier.
Like the BBC Sounds web, TV and mobile apps, this experience lets listeners browse by categories like True Crime, Feel Good Tunes and Life Stories, find the latest shows, podcasts and mixes they’ve subscribed to on BBC Sounds, and get recommendations based on previous listening when signed into their BBC account.
It also lets people pick up where they left off with the Continue Listening feature and they can see what track they’re currently listening to live.
Jonathan Wall, Controller of BBC Sounds, says: “We want BBC Sounds to be available wherever and whenever people want to listen, and this is another way to make sure people can enjoy our audio however they choose. From firm favourites to new discoveries, we’re giving our listeners even easier access to our brilliant selection of radio, music mixes and podcasts.”
BBC Sounds is available to preview in the Sonos app now and will be officially released over the coming weeks for listeners in the UK.
