Privacy
Nothing about you leaves your devices.
Dial is a remote for the Sonos system you already own. It has no account of its own, no analytics, and no interest in your data. This page says exactly what it stores and where.
Last updated 7 September 2026
The short version. Dial collects no personal information and sends nothing about you to us. Your Sonos and music-service credentials are held in the encrypted keychain of the device you linked on — Apple TV, iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch — and never leave it. Everything the app does, it does between your devices, your speakers, and the services you have already signed into.
What we collect
Nothing. The app contains no analytics, advertising, tracking, or measurement code. We — the developer — receive no data about you, your household, your speakers, or your listening.
What the app stores on your device
- Your Sonos authorisation token and any music-service tokens you link, stored only in the device keychain, encrypted, available only after the device is unlocked, and never synced off the device.
- Recent searches, kept separately for each music service in the app’s own on-device settings, so the search screen can show what you looked for. This never leaves the device and you can clear it by removing the app.
None of this is transmitted to us or to any third party for our purposes.
Where the app connects
Every connection the app makes is one you asked for by using it:
- Your Sonos speakers on your local network, to browse and control playback.
- The Sonos Control API, where Sonos requires it for your household.
- The music services you linked (Apple Music, Spotify, and others), through their own interfaces, to search and play your music.
- A one-time authorisation service during setup, so you can approve the app through Sonos without ever giving it your password.
How you authorise it
You approve Dial once, through Sonos’s own authorisation flow — the same way any third-party app connects. The app never sees your Sonos password. You can revoke access at any time in your Sonos account, and clearing the app’s stored credentials is a single action on its re-link screen.
Children
Dial is not directed at children and collects no information from anyone.
