Controllers and Music services

When using the mac desktop app I frequently used the function keys to play/pause. This doesn’t work for me with the web app. Does anybody know of a way to enable it? Thanks

I updated the Sonos app today and now have lost all my connected devices.

I have a music library in my phone Pixel 7 which i would like to hear via sonos without using youtube (premium). Is it a way?

Having (unfortunately) just upgraded to the latest controller, I am really frustrated and annoyed with this version.  There is absolutely no ability to add, remove, edit a queue.  This is fine for listening to a playlist or album, but what if you want to add an extra song - you can’t. What if you want to “create” a playlist with friend/family by adding tracks one at a time (which I do regularly) - you can’t. Re-order - you can’t.Made a mistake and want to remove a track - you can’t How can I downgrade to the previous and superior verision? I can’t believe Sonos thinks it’s acceptable to provide an inferior controller and market this as a new and upgraded controller.  I have spent thousands of pounds over the years on Sonos products and now I found that the most used features for me have been removed.

I create Sonos Playlists with songs from Napster. When I play the playlist I will get an "Unable to Play...lost connection to Napster" message for some songs in the playlist. I will go into the Playlist and see that about 12-15 songs have a black icon next to them (no record cover graphic) and these are the songs that will not play. I have to go and redownload every one of these songs back into the playlist and remove the "bad" song with the black disc icon. It is exactly the same whether I’m on the Sonos (2) Desktop Controller or the Sonos (2) Mobile App. I now have about 500 songs that need to be deleted and reloaded. On top of that, when I search (Napster) for artists/albums/songs, I am now finding that huge numbers of them come up with ‘No selections are available’. Napster is now practically unusable - as is my Sonos system. I have tried: 1) deleting and reloading my Napster Account - no change. 2) Turning off my router for 2 minutes - no change. I am not the first person to post

Hello!I have problems with the signing in my Sonos account with the new Sonos app.I'm using it on both iOS and Android. With the first - no problems, but I can't login with my Android phone.It redirects me to the website, I'm typing my details, but somehow can't login. There's no error message, nothing. Very strange.I've reseted the app at least four times with no success.Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!Radoslav 

I recently upgraded to the Sonos latest app version. Is anyone also experiencing a worse performing app user experience? Is the user experience better than the older version in terms of navigation?I find the app slow and less reliable at the moment. The timer is also missing for auto-switch off.

Hey what happened to the sleep timer? I see the app ICON went to black from orange and they removed my sleep timer. Where did it go?

Why was I so silly to update. Can I und it and go back to old version?

Realy? Thats what we have from Kids generation Z today. I open Sonos app, use it, oh no cant use. This in 5 secounds, i ask Sonos Team, you check your update or you think only thats must work, i think last. TEST IT BEFORE YOU "improve" something that was ultimately lost 100% meesed up. Up until now, Sonos has always been TOP, now i give you the title "FLOP of the year 2024".Please fix it immedetly! Go back to TOP!

Hello ,I have the following problem,Under “My Sonos” I see the station logo of my live stream channel.But at the bottom, where my system that is currently playing the channel is displayed, I no longer have the station logo.There is only a note symbol with a gray background.I use a FritzBox Cable 6690 as an Internet router.Now comes the strange thing: I restart the Fritzbox and I see the station logo again until my cell phone disconnects from my WiFi network again.When you reconnect, the logo is missing again.I've already reset the box and the app.Does anyone else have an idea as to what this could be?greetingMichael

The app update is unacceptable

Here is a link to the article: https://www.theverge.com/2024/5/9/24152675/sonos-new-app-bad-reviews-response-statement IT TOOK COURAGE TO RUIN OUR EQUIPMENT!!! Sonos can respond to Verge, but not to its customers on here? REALLY????

Recently installed a new modem/router. Updated Sonos app to the most recent version. Did a factory reset on my Gen 5’s and Roam. Everything goes well for the addition of the Sonos components to my new wifi network until the very end when it indicates that neither the Gen 5’s or Roam could not be registered to my account. I have a Sonos Port hardwired with an  Ethernet cable into the modem/router. Other device connections were successful. These included 2 Apple TV’s, iPads, iPhones, audio visual receiver and wireless printer. The only failures were the Sonos speakers.

Like many, I don’t like the new Sonos app.  I’ve updated the iPhone that I use the most and I am miserable.  I saw a thread response where one could download the old app for android. Does anyone know of something similar for the iPhone?  Thank you.

I just updated the app on my iPhone and it seems as if you can no longer adjust the queue. Previously you could adjust the order of songs and delete upcoming songs. I will really miss those options and feel someone should see about adding them back in. 

On the old app, you swiped and it gave you the option to remove song from your Sonos playlist (actual Sonos playlist that uses songs from your streaming sources). You can no longer swipe. If you hit the 3 buttons, it lets you “remove from your music,” but doesn’t remove from your playlist. 

The Sonos app just installed an update and now, when I start the app I just get a black screen with the Sonos text. The app never gets beyond that.My ow is android. I installed s1 but it only gives me the option to upgrade to s2.The desktop app still works but wants to update, which I'm reluctant to do until the mobile app works. Anyone have any suggestions

Updated app. Now my system is no longer available on the app. Do I have to reset each component?

Started to put my daughter to bed and the last part of our routine is her picking a few stories and some music to fall asleep to.  Guess what?  My app updated and the “improved” “courageous” app apparently never even underwent alpha testing.  It lost nearly every basic function this system is supposed to have.  You can no longer use your own music, add multiple items to a queue, edit a queue, or do any of the most essential functions a speaker app is supposed to have.  Is courage synonymous with failing to understand what your users are looking for?  Is to bold to destroy the brand image as a high fidelity music listening experience?    I have thousands of dollars of speaker equipment that is now useless until your engineers take months to restore these basic functions?  Give us back the functioning version that existed earlier while you figure out these updates  If you have to make an S2/update split like you did for the previous version, but please fix this so I can get my screaming

Your new app that's better than ever, as described by Sonos, has eliminated all podcasts, favorites, carefully constructed playlists, music libraries, essentially all that the user wanted. Get rid of the autistic programmer you've hired and hire a real programmer.

Hi I am looking for a way to return to the old Sonos app without resetting my iPhone. Here is the problem: when we purchased our amp the app was set up with my wife as the system owner. I have my own Sonos profile and not being the system owner wasn’t a problem for me until today when I updated to the new Sonos iPhone app. As the non account owner I no longer have control of EQ which means I can’t control which speakers are on and off without signing in as my wife. This was not the case with the old version of the app. The reason this is a problem is we have speakers in our Alfresco and Kitchen which I used to be able to turn on together, turn on just the kitchen by swiping left or just the alfresco by swiping right. This is now only possible if you are signed in as the account owner.  The two photos show 1. Me logged in as myself getting blocked and 2. the second photo is what can be accessed when logged in as my wife (the system owner).I hope Sonos fix this issue!!!!   

I am an android user and received the new app today. None of my music services had any of my files or playlists. I managed to get them fixed except for Classical Music Archives. When I try to add it, I get a screen stating, “something went wrong.” Any suggestions on what to try? Thank you.  

We have a beam and 2 of the one speakers and just bought a sub. Went to connect the sub and some how now the other products we had set up have disappeared on the app, and then the sub disappeared after it was already connected. I feel like the longer I spend on trying to figure this out, the more I messed it up. I don’t know how to fix this
