Is the App on a phased rollout?

If yes why is there no schedule here?

Hi All

The newest Android app has now reached 100% rollout. Please check your Play Store for app updates.

If you still cannot update to Android 80.10.06, please let me know.

I hope this helps.

Hi @wimvandijk

All software release notes are available on our Release notes for Software Updates help page.

I hope this helps.

No, because these are the app updates, I mean the firmware update of the speakers themselves. They do not run synchronously with the app updates so there must be more in it. What you indicate here is that for this functionality you need at least the latest firmware

All software notes are compiled into those posts. The part I highlighted was the only change made to the firmware with the last update (or, only documented change, anyway) - the “Music Library indexing and reliability improvements” were included in the speaker firmware update, not the app update. The release notes are combined.

I hope this helps.

It’s not very clear is it. For iOS you just get the rather generic bug & stability fixes, yet the speaker firmware fixes the indexing regardless of controller platform. The release notes make it look like it’s Android only.

If that’s ‘more verbose’ then I guess we have no hope for ever getting useful release notes. It’s pretty poor frankly, as is the state of queue and playlist editing after 5+ months.

It’s a shame Sonos can’t be bothered to put the same effort into new releases that they seem to put into their corporate pronouncements… 😳

Thank you. It wasn't there for me (in Canada) about an hour before I read this message, but I checked again after seeing this and the update had finally arrived. I can't recall any other app update where a "gradual" rollout has taken a full week. I hope this isn't the Sonos standard going forward. But I certainly appreciate your help in sorting this out.

Why has the release notes page been changed retrospectively? That previous iOS release had three entries including two quick updates after the initial about 19th Sept. one…. that’s now all vanished.

What’s the point of a release notes page that changes after the fact to something completely different?

Just so I’m not going mad…
