Can't add Spotify tracks to Sonos playlist

To troubleshoot a different issue, I removed and re-added all tracks to an existing Sonos playlist (using the Windows controller, as this option has STILL not been restored to the Android app!). At least, that was the plan. Re-adding from my local library worked fine, but I could not add the single song from Spotify that was previously in this playlist.

Is this a new infuriating limitation? Or might there be a solution?

    ​@florismk … Adding anything to the play queue….whether it is an individual song, a playlist, or even a whole album. Nothing adds to queue.

    ​@toram23901 So you're talking about adding to the queue. Topic is about adding to Sonos playlists. Different issue, with different symptoms.

    Adding to Sonos playlists from the app hasn't worked at all since the new app release (documented and acknowledged by Sonos), but does work from the Windows controller. Except Spotify tracks, which is what this topic is about.

    Your issue is adding to the queue. which does work from the app but not from the Windows controller. Different use case, different issue, opposite symptoms.

    I recommend you start a new topic for that.

      My Windows controller had not taken the update, but my speakers updated yesterday, so I tried a few things with that, then I updated the Windows controller and tried them again. Everything worked for me in both cases.

      Now on 82.2-59204 on everything.

      I took a Spotify track and tried:

      • Add to end of queue
      • Add to Sonos playlist
      • Add to Spotify playlist

      Everything worked.

        Will try that ASAP, ​@controlav ! Would be great if an update is all that's needed.

        That’s not what I am saying. I am saying this works for me on the old app and on the updated app.

            ​@RobinLakeman This topic is about adding to Sonos playlists, not about adding to the queue. I recommend you start your own topic for your issue.

              It’s “funny” as wifie has been able to to add Spotify tracks to Sonos playlists from her Mac, but not ipad or iphone to great noise… I took to my PC just to see, and after an update (been forever since i used the Sonos app there) it happily allows me to add Sonos tracks to Sonos playlists! My iPhone still is not showing the “add ti sonos playlist”… 

              Rather annoying to have to get the laptops out to add some music to the playlist we share in Sonos…
