Apple app missing features that Android has

I have an Apple IPhone SE2, which I’ve updated religiously. Currently running the most up to date versions of iOS and the Sonos app. My husband has an Android phone & recently began using the Sonos system too.

We just noticed that (from within the Sonos app) he can access “Album info” & “Browse the Artist” - in addition to “Crossfade” & “Sleep timer” by clicking 3 dots on the currently playing song screen. HOWEVER, by the same method I can only access “Crossfade” & “Sleep timer.” I’m super bummed and can’t seem to find any way to browse similar artists through the Sonos app - vis a vis my Amazon Music account.

It feels like the developers forgot to give the Apple app this option - what gives? Anyone else notice this?

Ahha!! I found the menu - but I agree that it seems like a horrible bug, meaning I literally had to discover that a single text line is scrollable….But it only has a viewing window of a SINGLE text line. It’s very hard to find, scroll, and see. It should be taller than a single text line. Thanks everyone.

I can only agree. The "Crossfade" and "Sleep Timer" options take up excessive space. It feels like a fairly simple redesign could make it much easier to use.

I imagine larger iPhones are easier to use, as with larger Android phones.

Actually - it turns out to be a glitch when I use the display zoom view on my phone. If I use standard view the items show in the menu (still a tiny single line)...but when using the display zoom view they aren’t even there - nothing to scroll or even find at all.
