NFC Controller for Sonos

Start an album by scanning a NFC tag

This app simplifies starting music on your Sonos system. Use this app to link a Sonos-Favorite* with a NFC tag. And whenever you put the tag on your phone the music gets started. The app doesn't have to be started manually but the screen have to be turned on.
