Is there any way to revert back to the last app before the recent update? This latest update is just plain stupid.

Cross posted from another thread - I made the mistske of telling Google Store to update the Sonos app. Once the app updated it self and all my speakers were upgraded, I found the new UI to be terrible and not have dark backgrounds, among many other issues. I uninstalled the 8.0 app and found an apk mirror for Sonos 7.4, I reverted back to 7.4 for android to get the original, useful UI back that also has the wonderful dark backgrounds and a host of other things. No issues so far... 🙂

I like the new app. It's easier to navigate.

My system no longer works. All of my controllers keep insisting that I upgrade, but every upgrade installation fails. So now I have a dead 9-room system. THANK YOU MORON SONOS PRODUCT MANAGER! How do I get out of this brain-dead beta program?

New app a huge step backwards, roll it back. Very poor control and poorly thought out

Hi guys, the new app update is really non-intuitive. I don’t know where to start... Navigation is awful. Simply trying to change volume in different rooms and muting some speakers is... well I’m not sure how. If I’m having trouble, no doubt many or most users are. Hope you put it right.

I also agree! Selecting which device you want to control sucks now!

Totally agree. I want the old app back. Not intuitive at all.

Plus 1 for the old app. I very much dislike the new one.

How did you do that exactly?
