Probably. This is currently what Sonos have announced.

The future features updates page does not obviously mention queue editing, unless it's bundled under "improved playback settings" (doesn't seem likely to me).  There are many things I dislike about the new app design, but I miss this feature the most.  I'd like to see it on the calendar explicitly.

Editing the queue is the feature I miss the most.  Editing the queue and saving queue as a playlist is an essential function that should no music system should go without.  Please put it on the list of features to be revived and give us a date to look forward to. June is over and we are still waiting for the features planned for June.  I hope queue editing comes back in July.

School boy error. Sonos you’ve scored an own goal by removing the edit queue function. Could do better, must try harder… E minus/No Grade

Editing the queue etc. is mentioned in the Sonos Support App future features update - see the links in the earlier posts in this thread.

The stated dates for release are September & October - so maybe see what the situation is at the end of October as these things can get interrupted by some other things too, I guess.

 One other thing that bugs me about the queue is it does not follow the progress of the music.  I could be on track 236 and when I open the queue I’m on page 1.  There is no other control point app that does that.  I’ve used a lot of control point apps all the way back to Slim Devices Squeezebox and they all follow the music progress.  This is the basics.

Ability to edit the queue - it's FINALLY back! Most of the new queue editing functionality is self-explanatory (swipe left to delete a track from the queue was the only one I didn't figure-out immediately).

Slowly getting somewhere! 🙂

 Just wish the 3 lines for moving a track were not always showing on the queue screen.  They take up space for the track name and they could cause the accidental movement of a track while swiping.  Please bring back the word Edit which, after choosing, would display the 3lines for moving tracks.  Add the word Save while your at it.

I have been wondering if the “directly moving the track when (touching and) swiping on the 3 lines graphic” is just on my Poco Android device or on all Android’s. 

On iOS I need to touch and hold the 3 lines to move the track in the queue. It’s much safer against the accidental movement when I intend to just scroll the queue. Obviously it’s a bit slower than now on Android but I’m not sure it’s great that I need to watch exactly where I put my finger before wanting to scroll the queue. 
 

Was this functionality forced by Android’s inners or something Sonos UX designers think is so often a used feature compared to scrolling the queue that it needs to move the track immediately?
