Unable to rearrange songs in queue - iOS 13.3

All of a sudden I’m no longer able to rearrange the songs in queue from my iPhone or iPad.   I’m able to add songs from my library and select “add to end of queue” or “play next”, but once they are added, I’m unable to adjust the order.  Normally I can tap and hold a song and move it up or down in the queue, that option is gone - all I can do is delete songs.   :(   My Sonos and iOS software are both up to date.  I am still able to rearrange songs on my Mac but it was so convenient to be able to do it from my phone - this was one of my favorite features of the Sonos app.  Am I missing something?

    I’m having the same issue. I’m new to Sonos and was unpleasantly surprised that I wasn’t able to rearrange the Queue. I’m using an iPhone as the controller.

    Same here. What’s going on?

    I’ve realised I can still reorder songs in the iPhone app queue (v.10.6) by pressing and holding the right hand edge of a song; it’s just that the usual three horizontal lines no longer show. This bug doesn’t appear to be affecting the Android controller app, which still shows the three-line icon as usual.

    Then edit lines are there on iOS but VERY feint. You can see them with the brightness on full. Annoying though. I have fed this back.

    Huh, you’re absolutely correct. I hadn’t looked till now, but my, they’re extremely faint. I really had to let my eyes adjust before I could see them.

    Got it!  Yep, I usually have the brightness turned way down on my phone so I didn’t see them and I guess I never quite tapped in the right place.  Thanks xenarthra!

    Came here to report this exact issue. Pretty much a big UI fail.

    Agreed!! Discovered the problem New Years even night during a big party. Couldn’t move anything or reorder. Who tests this the UX??? This was NOT well designed. Please fix.

    Please note that there is an “answer” on this thread, you can indeed modify your playlists, it is just difficult to see the UI element to click on.
