Ongoing Beta Beta Test: Add Surrounds

[WiiM Team]

Hi WiiM Community,

We’re looking for beta testers to try the new Add Surrounds experience. Support for adding a Center channel will be introduced in a later update.

What’s included in this beta​

• Add a WiiM streamer or amplifier as surround speakers with a simplified setup flow.
• Current beta firmware supports WiiM Ultra as the primary device.
• Surround channel assignments are remembered when surrounds become active.
• The channel memory improvement also applies to other Persistent Groups.

Please refer to the article for full details.

1. Update the WiiM Home app to v3.5.1 or later.
2. For WiiM Ultra (front soundstage or surrounds):
   Go to Device Settings → Device Info → Join Beta Testing, then select Version 5.2.807549.
3. For WiiM Sound / Sound Lite (surround speakers):

I see that the beta is available for my WiiM Sound (used in my entryway), but not my Sound Lites (used for surround sounds).

Will it be available for the Lite soon?
