feature request: quicker access to surround sound settings

Question

Feature suggestion: I don't understand why the equaliser and surround sound settings are not quickly available from the 'now playing' panel. When you are seeing what you are playing, that's when you might want to adjust sound/surround settings - it's the natural place for it - not hidden away deep in the settigns four or five clicks away. Makes zero sense to me. Please fix this!

Hi ​@stu_ckWelcome to the Sonos Community!As explained above, there is an option to have a button for the EQ next to the volume slider, but I agree that it would be nice to have the Surround Sound settings there too.Thank you - I've marked this thread as a feature request and it will be seen by the relevant teams for consideration. Keep the ideas coming!

The Equalizer can be made directlyaccessible from the Now Playing panel. On the IOS controller go to your account profile, then App Preferences, and there you will find the option to switch on the EQ Shortcut, which will appear at the right hand end off the volume bar on the Now Playing sreen. No idea though why this option is hidden away in the Account Profile menu, rather than the Settings menu. Having the option in Settings would seem more logical to me. Can’t help with the Surround settings I’m afraid as I don’t use these.
