AirSonos
A Home Assistant add-on that bridges AirPlay to Sonos and UPnP players, enabling Apple device audio streaming.
What is AirSonos?
AirSonos is a Home Assistant community add-on that enables AirPlay audio streaming to Sonos and UPnP-compatible devices. It acts as a network bridge, creating virtual AirPlay endpoints that forward audio from Apple devices to players that don't natively support AirPlay. This solves the compatibility gap between Apple's proprietary protocol and popular whole-home audio systems.
Home Assistant users with Sonos or UPnP audio systems who want to stream audio from Apple devices like iPhones, iPads, or Macs. It's ideal for smart home enthusiasts seeking tighter integration between their Apple ecosystem and existing whole-home audio setups.
Developers choose AirSonos because it's a free, open-source alternative to commercial solutions, deeply integrated into Home Assistant for centralized management. Its lightweight bridging approach based on the battle-tested AirConnect project ensures reliability without requiring additional hardware.
