Speaker Volume Bridge

For macOS, Windows & Linux

Your device.
Your speaker.
In sync.

LESS FIDDLING. MORE LISTENING.

A familiar way to
turn it up. Or down.

01 / CONTROL

Connect your device volume.

Changes to your selected computer audio output’s volume are reflected on your Sonos speaker. Use system volume controls, keyboard keys, or supported device controls.

02 / SYNCHRONIZE

Keep both sides in step.

Enable two-way synchronization to reflect speaker volume changes on your computer too. You can also choose to synchronize mute.

03 / PERSONALIZE

Find your comfort zone.

Set a maximum speaker volume and choose how volume changes feel, including a gentler curve for finer control at low volumes.

04 / KEEP GOING

Set it. Get on with your day.

Follow your current audio output or select a fixed one. Start at login and reconnect automatically after interruptions.

05 / NIGHT SCHEDULE

Quieter evenings, on time.

Set weekly half-hour blocks for Night Mode on your selected compatible speaker. Drag to select several days at once, and choose native notifications when the schedule starts or ends.

LOCAL BY DESIGN

Your volume stays
between your devices.

No advertising, analytics, or publisher telemetry in the app. Preferences and diagnostic logs stay on your computer unless you choose to share them. Optional update checks read the public project catalog without sending speaker or configuration data.

GOOD TO KNOW

Volume control.
That’s the idea.

This app synchronizes volume and optional mute state. It does not play, stream, capture, or redirect audio.

It’s an early community project, with hands-on testing currently limited to a Sonos Ray. Other models and hardware combinations may need validation.

macOS requires version 13 or later. Linux support targets Ubuntu with PulseAudio or PipeWire with pactl. Check the installation guide for available packages and platform notes.
