Where's my reindex functionality in the new app

Believe you have to use the desktop app currently. Sonos removed local library management from the mobile app. Hopefully coming back in the coming months.

I uploaded new mp3 files to my NAS, but I can’t apparantly reindex my music library anymore in the apps… I tried the android and ios app. I remember that in the past there was an option under system to update your library, but no longer.

So how do I reindex my music library?

Get a pen and paper out and start writing it all down?

Reindexing as in meaning that Sonos “sees” my new mp3 files I put on the NAS.

In the meantime I found a solution: I bought Sonospad on my iPad for 2 euro. That application can still reindex your Sonos music library. It’s a shame a third party application of probably a semi-hobby developer currently has better functionality than the app of the company making the hardware.

I was being sarcastic

I know… still, it’s a shame some third party app better supports Sonos than their own app.
