Select a location

You can put your speaker just about anywhere. Here are a few guidelines:

Move is made to give you powerful sound anywhere—auto Trueplay tuning periodically balances the sound for wherever you are and whatever you’re listening to. The microphone has to be on for automatic tuning so if you don’t leave the microphone on all the time, turn it on for a few minutes whenever you move your speaker so it can automatically adjust the sound for your new surroundings.
Move sounds great even when placed next to a wall or on a shelf. For best performance, leave at least 1" (2.5 cm) space around the back of the speaker.
It’s ultra durable. With a tough outer shell and IP56 rating, Sonos Move is built to withstand falls, bumps, moisture, dust, UV rays, and extreme temperatures. Just don’t leave it out in a soaking rain storm, and remember that the charging base that’s included is for indoor use only.
Don’t use or store your Sonos Move upside down.

Automatic Trueplay™

You can put Sonos Move just about anywhere. Auto Trueplay tuning optimizes the sound for wherever you are and whatever you’re listening to. Your speaker’s microphone is used to detect the environment so auto Trueplay can make periodic tuning adjustments to deliver the best sound.

If you don’t want the microphone on all the time, be sure to turn it on whenever you move the speaker. Your Sonos Move starts retuning when you pick it up, and continues to adjust the sound for a few minutes after you place it in a new location.

Microphone on/off

The microphone is used for voice control, and for auto Trueplay tuning. Touch to turn the microphone on or off.

When the microphone light is on,

If you have a voice assistant, voice control is on and your voice assistant is ready to respond.
Auto Trueplay tuning is enabled so Move can automatically adjust its sound for your surroundings.

When the microphone light is off,

If you have a voice assistant, voice control is off.
Auto Trueplay tuning is disabled.

Switch modes

Set Move up on your WiFi, then use the mode switch on the back of Move to switch between Bluetooth and WiFi. When you use Bluetooth for the first time, you’ll need to pair Move with your device. Once paired, they’ll reconnect automatically next time.

Bluetooth pairing

Turn Bluetooth on in your device settings.
Press the mode button on the back of Move to switch to Bluetooth.
Choose Move from the list of available devices in your Bluetooth settings. If it’s not there, press and hold the mode button and choose Move from the list when it appears.

You’ll hear a confirmation tone when your device is paired with Move. They’ll automatically connect next time you switch Move to Bluetooth.
