deezer not connecting

Since yesterday I am unable to connect with my Deezer account through the S2 app. I’ve tried deleting the service and adding it back in with no luck. The Deezer app itself works fine as does playing music in it it’s simply trying to get sonos to connect that fails.  Has anyone run into this issue recently and been able to correct it? Sonos helpline is running with an hour wait time so I thought I’d try here  cheers

Music Library - add to end of queue now appears, but still isn't working. Home screen editing is not sticking.

I noticed that “Add to End of Queue” now appears in the context menu when browsing my music library, along with “Replace Queue”.  However. selecting “Add to End...” always fails and displays the message, “”Unable to add to end of queue”.  Note that “Replace Queue” does seem to work properly with my music library. On another note, editing my home screen to remove “Pinned Collections” that were created in the old controller are only temporarily deleted when I edit the home screen.  Closing the app and reopening it restore these collections (which are all podcasts).I wanted to make sure these were documented as a bugs, and not considered fixed.  I’m on controller version 80.04.05-release+20240702

Sonos champion now unable to recommend the brand

I was a very early adopter and champion of Sonos. I’ve always loved the industrial design of the hardware, the ease of use from setup to daily use and the integration strength. I’ve got a house full of your products including two full home theaters and zones in almost every room. Your recent app updates have made things slower, harder to use and removed (or broke) key features. I’m an early adopter and willing to take some usability pain, but never felt I had to with Sonos.Ease of use was so strong with Sonos that for years, I’ve been buying my older parents Sonos equipment because of how much my Mom loves music. In my recent trip to see them over the 4th, they were at a loss with the most recent app usability. Complex, cluttered, hard to navigate with the same laggy response to things like volume that I’ve also experienced. I was embarrassed that a brand that I introduced them to, had failed to provide a usable, accessible product for them to use. In the short term, I was able to get

Spotify playlists and music library search

Currently, only a handful of Spotify playlists show through the sonos app. Will this be fixed in upcoming releases. There was not an arbitrary limit set on viewable playlists in the old app. When will the personal music library be searchable again? Thanks

Sonos Amps not registering - Crashing app

While trying to setup a new Sonos Amp in the new app, it won't register.  Then, you go to settings to manually register, and the app crashes….every time. App is current version and iphone running on latest IOS. This new app is absolutely horrible.  You made unnecessary changes to an app that was already easy to use and show customers how to use.  Completely unnecessary to overhaul this like they did.  If you want to give it a cosmetic refresh - fine, but this is just horrible.

When is Sonos going to stop screwing with the app?!

I’ve had the Sonos Beam for 2 years and I love it. The Sonos app however has become a complete joke! Once you figure it out, they change it! Do the people at Sonos have ADHD?!? Can you either leave it alone or come out with an app that actually works and is easy to use?!I use the Sonos Beam for music using Sirius and with the latest app it’s very slow to load, gets stuck when trying to shut off. This latest version is AWFUL! Stop screwing around with it!

Balance not working with stereo audio on Arc

I've got my system up to date and using the newest iPhone app and I have an Arc soundbar.The problem I have is that the balance slider on the app doesn't do anything; when I'm listening to stereo audio it doesn't matter which way I move the slide it doesn't change the audio output at all i I need the balance to work because the left side of my Arc is very close to a wall and the right is far; even after Trueplay tuning, the audio sounds about 30% to 40% louder on the left than right and I can't fix it because the balance feature in the app doesn't work please help

Relisten just blank in the app?

So Relisten is showing up completely blank in the app.  No band names appearing, and although there is a search bar, the search function does not apply to Relisten.  Any ideas?  Mods could you put a ticket in for this for a bug fix?  Screen shot below.

Deezer integration - new app

Unfortunately, the integration of Deezer is still fundamentally broken in the new app. This is particularly bad when trying to play “top tracks” for an artist: Search for and click on artist brings up the artist page. Going into “top tracks” there is no way to start the full play list. You can only start individual songs after which playback stops. Each page in the flow also takes seconds to loadThe new app broke a lot of functionality, but seeing how even such basic functionality is broken for weeks is incredibly disappointing. This is not Deezer’s fault - things were working before the new software version. This is Sonos pushing an unfinished app. When can we expect this to be fixed?
