I cannot seem to find a way to add songs to playlist in the new app. when I click on the ••• next to a song while another is playing, the only option now appears to be Replace Queue, and no ability to insert the song. what am I missing?

Sort this mess of an app out. What an absolute joke of an update. Someone needs to go after signing this one off.

This update of the app is just useless!! It’s an absolute joke and nightmare. Why make these changes? And why propose it if it’s not your final version. Please bing back the old version.

This is so dumb its unbelivable, that was like the only and obvious way really benefit from bringing multiple songs and services together in sonos - massive fail 

MASSIVE fail, agreed. I am hoping that we’re all missing something simple, but I’m losing hope quickly. This benefit is something I would talk about regularly when talking about Sonos to those who did not have it. This is LAME.

Glad it was not just me thinking I couldn’t find it. Seems a no-brainer to include in update - why would you remove it. The apps lost one of its key benefits. Wish I hadn’t updated it and stuck with the old one.

How to create a new playlist in the New SonoS-app

How can you NOT add this feature for an update? That's absolute basic and was already in. Wtf...

This has to be one of the biggest gaffs ever, why put out an update that is such a retrograde step? This update does not offer something better than the previous version, if anything this is a step backwards. I’m getting really frustrated by this app, the simple functionality to play next or add to the end of the queue was what it was all about for me and how I created playlists. Sonos must think we’re all superstar DJ’s just thinking up playlists before we  actually play anything, not in this house. FFS WTF?

Time to sell my Sonos system if I cannot add songs to the system from my NAS drive by selecting albums and adding to the queue. The simplest system is now the most expensive Store High In Transit system

They said it took a lot of courage to move ahead with this upgrade. I think it took even more stupidity. Is there a way to revert back to the previous version?

Agreed. Such a bummer that some of their best functionality is gone. I’ve read that reverting can be done on an android phone. Haven’t seen anything for Apple products yet though.
