Save Queue to a Sonos Playlist (Again)

So the latest App release for IOS (81.00.52) says that it now includes re-intstatement of the much requested ‘save your queue as a playlist’.

However, having updated both App and Sonos system I am still none the wiser as to how this can be achieved. I tried tapping on the ‘queue’ icon at the bottom left of the now playing screen. This displays the queue, but no new controls have been added to the queue screen (still just shuffle, repeat, and clear).

Anyone have any ideas how the queue can be saved?

Is it buried away in some other sub-menu somewhere?

For the past year, features have been enabled/unlocked in stages around a fortnight period in order to catch any bugs that might have escaped them during beta testings.

From the Now Playing screen, tap the Queue icon (lower left)

From there, tap the three dots (. . .) at the very top right (on the Queue level).

Tap Save as Sonos Playlist.

Unfortunately I don’t have the 3 dots in the top left, just the ‘clear queue’ icon.

Is that Android?

Did you get the Jan app update? Android can take a couple weeks to be released for your devices.

Rollouts for releases are incremental. Check your app version, the new versions are:

81.00.51 (Android)

81.00.49 (iOS)

Release date: 1/27/2026

Strangely it works OK on my iPad, but option not showing on 2 iPhones (14 pro and SE). I’ve tried the usual of deleting the app, restarting the phone, and re-installing (latest version 81.00.52), but still don’t have the 3 dot option at the top right of the Queue screen - just the old ‘bin’ clear icon. Perhaps it will magically appear in a few days?

I’m on IOS, and using the Jan update. Works OK on my iPad, but not on iPhone.

@RavingDave, You’ll need to await the firmware update for the speakers.

@Smilja, I’ve updated the firmware to latest version 93.1-73190, released 27/01/2026. Still only works on iPad, but not on iPhone.

@RavingDave, Uninstall the Sonos app, reboot the iPhone, and re-install the Sonos app from the App Store.
