Sometimes I start listening music from one sonos in one room and then it happens to move to another room and I want to add the sonos in that room to the flow. What I have to do is to use the app but I think it would be nice to just be able to press one of the buttons to add that sonos to the group. For example: press for 2 seconds the button play/mute to do the trick. Is it possible to add that feature? thanks a lot in advance for the feedback.

The feature already exists. Try pressing for a little bit longer.

Also note that you can move play from room A to room B by:
- pressing play/mute in A to stop play
- long-pressing play/mute in B to take over from A

Press once to start or stop streaming audio.
Press twice to skip to the next track (if applicable to the selected music source).
Press three times to skip to the previous track (if applicable to the selected music source).
Press and hold the Play/Pause button on a player to group it with the last active room.

The press-to-group/ungroup feature only arrived fairly recently, in v8.0.
