Last.fm not scrobbling

Hi,

Reading around it seems last.fm functionality was retired around a year ago. However my scrobbles had been working just fine until the very most recent app update. Now it only scrobbles a small amount, seemingly at random. Very disappointing, but since there hadn't been any update that I can see on these forums, are the team at Sonos looking at restoring last.fm functionality?

The app is close to being as it was (though still no ability to create new Sonos playlists on the app, only edit existing ones) but this is a major loss.

In the meantime, if anyone has any suggestions to enable scrobbling (simple scrobbler isn't working for me, even with the Sonos player ticked) I'd appreciate it.

As you mentioned, Last.fm on Sonos was discontinued on June 2024 and there are no plans on restoring it. That might change but I have no information as of now.

The ability to Create or edit a Sonos Playlist is back on the Sonos App, make sure you have the latest updated version. You can download it from our official page Sonos Downloads.

I hope this helps.
