Alright, July 22 app update just dropped.

I took the risk of updating so you don’t have to 🙃🤣 So far so good, it opened on first try. Will update.

Is it working for you?

Samsung Android users are you back to a working app?

 

iOS release notes 

  • Added setup, configuration, and search for local Music Library
  • Improved account settings for Sonos Pro subscribers
  • Added line-in autoplay and compression settings
  • Improved accessibility in Settings
  • Improved notification for player firmware updates
  • Improved Sub audio settings with Amp

 

ETA THE GOOD :

  • local library search is working
  • Configuration and set up for local libraries is there but I’m not testing it as it’s working for me and I don’t want to tempt fate
  • Line in auto play seems to be working.
  • Sub audio has phase control and crossover frequency. I haven’t tested if they actually do anything but hopefully working as expected.

***Loading way quicker on my network, ~2.5 seconds after a force close for Recently played, sonos favourites etc to populate. (10 sonos devices).

Last used room controls at the bottom are available right away, ie can stop whats playing in a hurry if required. I think this is a good change.

 

Release notes not updated yet but will be posted here whenever they get around to it.

Moderator edit: typo in title changed

No I won’t be updating 👍


Works for me, though I never had issues before.

Yes we know you and Ken have the special edition.🤣

Yes you will. The lure of hanging with the cool cats all listening to their music libraries on the shiny new Sonos app will be too much for you to resist.

While I don’t like to speak for others, we are a holy trinity, as you forgot @jgatie.  😀


Local library COMPILATIONS still borked after the last firmware.

Firmware? Or app update? (Just checking you also updated the firmware to the version issued last week)

Oh yes, I remember now!

It was last weeks firmware that broke compilations, under the impression the release today would also have a firmware update.

No, just the app update. I tried to run a system update after updating the app just now, just in case, but last week’s firmware is the latest...


It works! Finally. I rolled back to the old Android one and relied on Windows do things they'd disabled but the last couple of weeks they've basically blocked almost all functionality on the old Android app.

 

Still missing media controls. And widgets. Sure there's other stuff too.

Yup compilations still messed up. No firmware update (yet).

Reading through the forums this was only escalated to the development team late last week so it would be unlikely that this would have been addressed in this release.

Search still sucks. Give us a specific category to search for podcasts through the Sonos app. Why is this so hard?

No search for me in my local library, errors with a check service status!

Dunno if it'll help but did you clear the app cache?

iPad… app remove as well as reboot and reinstall. 


Line-In autoplay and autoplay volume seem to work as expected. 👍


Woo. Hoo. Today’s v80.05.06 of the Android app no longer crashes playing local library music.

The Ace received an update 1.5 weeks ago.

Also autoplay to a specific room seems to work as well.

No “Something Went Wrong” errors yet for me. Still early but good sign.
