How do I sort Pandora alphabetically?

I just ran the most recent update of the controller on Mac (version 8.2, build 39247040). I notice that Pandora created a new subfolder of "My Stations" and inside of that, my stations are sorted by date most recently played. I'm sure that was requested by some users, but is of no use at all to me. I want to browse channels alphabetically as it has been. Is that a preference I can change or is this the new sort order we all have to use now?

Hi Jeff, that's odd. The person you spoke with should have known what you meant by the sorting of Pandora stations. I'll follow up on that internally. He is correct that it's not a feature that's available. You can't edit the sorting of the Pandora listing within Sonos. It used to be alphabetical but was changed to most recently played with an overhaul of the Pandora on Sonos integration. I'll make sure your request for either an option of sorting or a reversion to the old format gets passed to the right team. If you haven't yet, it'd also be good to let Pandora know that you're looking for this too.

Same! I prefer "My Stations" to be listed alphabetically. How do I do this?

I prefer the recently-played sort, but I agree an alpa-sort should be available. Can't see how to change it either.

Yes, Please put this back to how it was, or preferably give me an option of how to sort it so everyone can be happy.

I agree. I have the same issue now. I also don't know what purpose the new subfolder serves, other than adding more clicks to reach the music.

Agreed, please Sonos either give us sort options or put it back the old way.

Please bring alphabetical sorting back -- ideally we have as consistent a user experience, at least in terms of capabilities, across all platforms. I access Pandora from my Sonos, laptop, and mobile.

Come on Sonos, quit breaking things that don't need fixing. Rewriting the UI just to keep your programmers busy is a waist of OUR time! I want Pandora to continue to list my stations alphabetically. That and now Pandora has lost the options for "tired of this station" and more! Who runs this company now, Amazon, Pandora, and Spotify or Sonos?
