Getting Started
How do I connect WristLevels to my Sonos system?

- Grant WristLevels permission to control playback
- Your speakers will automatically load and sync to your Apple Watch
Do I need my iPhone nearby to use the Apple Watch app?
After initial setup, WristLevels works independently on your Apple Watch. You don't need your iPhone nearby to control volume.
Using WristLevels
How do I control volume?
- Apple Watch: Use the Digital Crown to adjust volume smoothly, or tap the Vol+ and Vol- buttons for quick adjustments. You can also tap the current volume to bring up a number pad.
- Widget: Add the WristLevels widget to your home screen for quick volume controls
How do I mute/unmute?
Tap the Mute button on either the Apple Watch or iPhone app. The button shows the current mute state.
How do I switch between rooms or speakers?
- Apple Watch: Tap the current room name at the bottom of the screen to open settings, then select a different room

What if I have grouped speakers?
WristLevels automatically detects speaker groups created in the Sonos app. When you select a grouped room, volume changes apply to all speakers in that group.
