80.10.06 (Android)

Sonos likes it to be a surprise?

I did a manual update a few minutes ago and got it, auto update at midnight (15:00 Phoenix, AZ time) didn’t see it.

Sonos doesn’t know?

When I used to release apps to the various stores, they would appear when the people managing that particular store were ‘ready’ . Some stores were much quicker than others, more often than not. But at no point would either Apple or Google ‘promise’ a time to me. 

Firmware update 16.4.2 is also available. And finally the combination album bug is fixed. 😎

I believe it's phased. I can't see this app update yet. Only the firmware update so far.

It’s largely down to Google and the country you’re in.

I think it's not related to Google and is a Sonos decision, similar to the last update where they said “This release will be gradually rolled out to users over several days.”

It's still not available to me either.

Okay, happy to stand corrected if that’s the case.

In Google Play Store (UK) yesterday. Need to tap to see Update otherwise it's just Open option. Hardware update need too. 

Still no update here on any (Android) device.

The point about the recent Hardware update is interesting though as I haven’t applied it - but an App update is just a view on the store to see if there’s a newer version isn’t it - you don’t need to be connected to the system at the time to see if the hardware update has been installed.  I appreciate there’s a system update that needs to be installed for the App update to fix all the issues it’s intended to - I’m just saying I don’t think installing it is a pre-requisite to seeing the App update in the first place.

I’d be curious what happens if you delete your local files, then go back to the store and download ‘fresh’. Do you get the ‘new’ version, or do you get the version you already had?

You’d need to be sure to ‘Connect to existing system’ when prompted, but as all data is stored on the speakers, and not in the controller, I’d think the risk is minimal.
