Feature Request: Play and add to queue option for entire folders within music library

Dear Sonos App Dev Team,

please add the feature to the Sonos app to play and add to queue all songs contained within a folder of the music library. This feature gives massive flexibility and was already included in the app version before the changes of May 2024.

Please fix it, 4 months have passed since you killed this feature without reason.

Best,

Elias

    Queue management is meant to be available this month or early next.

    Hi @ecamoz 

    Welcome back to the Sonos Community!

    Although @Rhonny is correct in saying that queue functionality will be returning soon, I cannot say whether this would be applied to Music Library folders as they do appear to be handled differently now.

    Thank you - I've marked this thread as a feature request and it will be seen by the relevant teams for consideration. Keep the ideas coming!

      Add my vote to  this to ​@Corry P ! (14 year Sonos user, heaviliy missing this feature)

      Positive note: on the roadmap it shows that Music Library Album Art is coming back to Android App!

        It is not a feature request it is a must have. Queuing music folders was a great feature in the app before the May release, so be pragmatic and smart, just release it back to the new app asap. We have waited too long now already.

            Yes, any update on it being on the roadmap of 2025 ​@Corry P ?
            Small feature (Windows app can still do it), big group of happy customers!


            Thanks a lot!

            Hi ​@CanisLupusNL 

            Feature request updates don’t really happen, I’m afraid, The first either of us will hear about it will be if it shows up one day.

              ​@Corry P If it only were a feature request….

              This essential functionality was present in Sonos controllers for over 10 years, and was killed in the May 2024 update of the mobile apps. Crazy enough, it is still working in the Windows app.

              Super simple: be able to Add a Music Library Folder (+subfolders) to queue.
              I cannot imagine that this would be more than 1 day of work for the development team...

                Absolutely agree, it is outrageous how key existing app features were killed over night and it takes months to put them back on. For Sonos apparently customer is slave and NOT king/queen!

                because the choice to buy a sonos product, for many of us, was also dictated by the potential that the system had to manage libraries on nas.

                If I had to choose today, I certainly wouldn't buy Sonos
