The Sonos app has been getting worse and worse in terms of connecting to my systems.  A lot of the time only some of them appear, if I reboot my phone and the sometimes the systems they reappear.  Now it cant connect and keeps telling me my network has changed or that I need to reboot my router and reconnect my systems.

They are connected to the network fine and can stream music, just I cannot talk to them using the app.  Anyone had a solution from Sonos to fix this, the app used to work so well now the whole system is bordering on useless.

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

To be honest with you, that sounds a lot more like issues with your network than with the Sonos app.

Do you happen to have a BT Smart Hub 2? If so, I recommend you read this topic:

In short, your BT Smart Hub 2 will have recently updated it’s firmware and this has been confirmed to cause a problem with allowing devices connected to 5GHz to communicate with devices connected to 2.4GHz, and vice versa.
