I have just tried to leave the beta program as I would prefer to use all the controller functions on my iPhone and iPad including EQ settings, Trueplay setup and other points. However, it did not work and I received a message saying Error code 9: and then all the room names.

    Hi John, thank you for the link. I have done all the requested actions and the downgrade on the Sonos devices didn't work. So I will share that with the Beta team on feedback form later. I know about the Limited Compatibility in IOS will be fixed when the new version goes into Production so will have to wait until it becomes available or the downgrade process works later. Thanks

    If you get through to Sonos Support on the phone I am sure they would be able to resolve it. No need to wait for full release.

    Hi. I just talked to Sonos support. All my Sonos devices were updated to version 7.0. While you can attempt to "update" (downdate?) back to the regular Mac/iPhone app version, the devices themselves are not able to go backwards to the older version. This is what generates the error messages. Hence I was told I have no choice but to wait until the new app updates come out. While they didn't give a date, they did say it should be soon. (My Mac app was at version 7.0 for a while. Now both my phone and Mac are on 6.4 and the Mac won't go back to version 7.0 again either). So - we wait.

    Hi All, This morning I noticed that an update had been done on the Sonos devices to ver 7.1 but the IOS controller app was still at ver 6.4.8.
    Any case I tried to leave the 7.0 Beta again and this time it worked !!
    All 3 Sonos products (Playbar, Sonos Sub and RealPlay 5) are at ver 6.4.2.
    So I am happy, EQ and Room settings now available to control via the IOS app.
    I will wait for the full production version when you can play music on the Sonos system directly from the Spotify app.
    Thanks Jeff S and John B.
