Using AirPlay to Cast Radio

    I'm using Airplay on an iPad with iPadOS 14.4 to cast radio from TuneIn Radio Pro to Sonos. The only way I have found to do this is to connect to Sonos from YouTube and then use Tunein Radio. Is there any way I can set up Airplay from within iPadOS?
    Ideally I would like to be able to select a specific Sonos speaker from any app, just like I can with Spotify.

    Thanks in advance...

    Just download the sonos app and you then add in any sources that you use e.g. YouTube Spotify TuneIn. Is there a particular reason to use airplay?

    Yeah, that works fine, for those. However, I have local content that this doesn't work for. I suppose I could set up a local media server, but I'd prefer a more simple solution.

    Hopefully the below will work for you

    Thanks a million, it is really simple - the speakers can be selected from the control centre. :)
