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?

This is the most ridiculous update I’ve ever seen. The one reason I told people to move to SONOS was the functions you have removed. Sort this mess now! Someone needs to get fired. How can anyone at SONOS approve this update? What clown show are you running over there?

Same! Now those functions are gone. Such a FAIL.

EPIC FAIL!

This is simple:
if they do not fix this until summer - I am gone.

Why keep on doing these companies this kind of s***.

This is so unbelievable. I am out of words. I just upgraded from the S1 app to the S2 app and I cannot use any of my devices anymore. How am I supposed to play more than one song? I haven’t found a way to do this. This is beyond unbelievable ?!?

how do the other people use the sonos system? You just play radio or what? Or us only pre defined Apple Music playlist? I never do any of the above.

I’ll try to downgrade back to the S1 app when I have some time or throw away all the speakers.

Sorry but this new app update is simply sh****** your customers in the face. Searching, clicking, volume is not reacting and if so it's taking forever. Half the time I click on a track I get an error. Creating a playlist function was not important enough to make the cut?

HOW can you release such an horrible untested update in 2024? It's not even a new app..

Oh yeah because everyone who were so stupid to buy your products are forced to use your incredibly useless app. The old version was already worse than most…

One of the reasons I love Sonos was using the app to play with playlists. I would like to go back before the change please. I didn’t agree to this change.

F*** Sonos and the horse it rode in on. Three years' worth of carefully curated playlists are gone.

In going over user remarks on the new Sonos app, it is not a challenge to conclude that Sonos missed the mark in this rollout. I’d be sympathetic, but I cannot see how to control Sonos Playlists with the new app. Consequently, I have to run to my desktop is I want to change a playlist. Is the app going to be modified so that it is more compatible with the music library?

Goodness I thought the S1 to S2 transition was bad enough but this latest fiasco is downright incompetent at any level from concept to application.

Apart from all the missing core functionality the new app has also affected realiability and operability. I have the most frustrating time with using the playlists now which no longer enable the titles to align with the actual music playing - usually two or three behind . To compound the problem , on virtually all but not every track the music jumps half way through the track to the next one. Purely arbitrarily. At first I could still rely on the desktop controller under S2 to play the tracks properly - which it did - but now that has been stopped by SONOS and I can no longer create a working desktop Windows controller at all on S2 or this new offering. The process just goes into a loop of nothingness after saying it is updated.

What a pain. Sonos should be ashamed. I have been a customer for about 20 years and am convinced all SONOS wants are the new generaltion of pure streamers which is fine but why do they ignore the needs of a vast customer base that uses NAS or other libraries for their primary source music? .
