The new app doesnt work

Do Sonos staff see these posts ? I’m new here. Looking back there was one “Corry P” who replied  4 months ago that issues were ongoing but no update since..?

Official staff respond sporadically. 
 

Here’s the latest update from the people in charge of this mess. https://support.sonos.com/en-ca/article/the-new-sonos-app-and-future-feature-updates

Not a huge fan of ‘bots, but that’s neither here nor there, and I suppose it matters how ‘smart’ they are. For all I know, you’re a ‘bot (but most unlikely!)

Sometimes, in my opinion, it requires an actual human, at least right now,  to analyze what is going on. The good thing is that at least sometimes, it’s working. The next time that happens, submit a system diagnostic and make a note of the number so that you can reference it on your call. That will give them an opportunity to look at some ‘hard’ data, and maybe see why it’s not connecting at other times.

But every programmer I’ve ever worked with in the past prefers bugs that have repro steps, or at the least some hard data to look at, I’d assume Sonos folks do as well. As far as I know, the data for a diagnostic is stored for a long time, so that it can be pulled up by multiple people to be looked at. What I don’t know is if that data is deleted. I’d assume it is, but have no idea if that’s 3 months, 3 years, or backed up and effectively infinite (something we tried to always due with customer data in my past).  

Hi ​@Nick_T 

There have been no updates from staff here because there have been no updates to give you. I am not saying no progress has been made, just that I do not receive updates on progress that is made so I have nothing I can update you all with.

I tried to talk to support via chat yesterday, spent 1 hour waiting in line and the agent stopped the chat the second it was my turn so I couldn’t ask anything. Will try again and share if I get some official feedback

Thanks for the link. Nothing in the latest update about this issue unfortunately. I wonder if Sonos have decided to kick it in the long grass and the issue will go away as people renew their phones etc..

I wasn't aware I could generate a diagnosis file, will give it a go..
