Dear Sonos developers 

As many of your Sonos users are now elderly, but your app on IOS is far too complicated for those users. I am having to always fix my elderly parents speakers and if your suggestion is use voice control you don’t understand the older generation. Either create a widget or shortcut just to play their chosen radio station or make an option in your app for a simple screen hiding all those unnecessary functions away, like Uber app does. 
Think out of the box for the needs of the older generations, which is a growing user base and please make your app available for all, not just youngsters!!!

This could easily be achieved if Sonos enable the Sonos App to use the iOS ‘Shortcuts’.

This would extend functionality of the Sonos App for all (iOS users), young, old, etc.
