    Hi Ben, currently you can't edit Apple Music playlists on Sonos. We're continuing to work with Apple to provide the best possible Apple Music experience on Sonos, and I know there is interest in seeing this feature. We'll pass your interest on to the team for you, but we don't tend to comment about what's coming for the future. Stay tuned to the community for updates on changes to your favorite services and any news.

    Each music service's UI within the Sonos app is designed and implemented by the service themselves using the Sonos provided API. So although requesting this type of function via Sonos is helpful, it is far more effective to make the request to the service themselves. Better yet, lobby both places.

    Also, with the newer Airplay 2 enabled speakers (Play:5 G2, Beam, Playbase, One) you can Airplay from the Apple Music app, and bypass the Sonos app altogether. No help for those who do not own an Airplay capable Sonos, but for those that do, it is an option.

      Good to know. Any idea where we can give Apple a feedback about their Sonos UI?
      Sonos app still have some advantages which is why we still use a lot. Even though all my sonos speakers are Airplay enabled. For example the music doesn’t stop when I step outside and my WiFi connection is lost for a minute. I can also watch a short news video without the sound going to the speaker automatically while the music still keeps playing in the background.

      Not an Apple person, but I imagine the Apple Music Support forum here:

      https://discussions.apple.com/community/music

      They seem to have a few topics on Sonos specifically.
