How to Rollback to S2?

Please provide a rollback option to S2.
 

The new app was advertised as a feature upgrade.  No mention of feature losses.  

We got feature losses and no warning.  No informed choice to delay the “upgrade.”
 

I cannot add a single song to the queue.  Basic queue management a critical feature that somehow didn’t make it into your MVP.

 

Now you expect your user base to wait months to return to feature parity.  Months.  

 

Do you realize how ridiculous this is from a user perspective?

I agree totally. This awfull „update“ leads to a lack of about 80% of the functionalty which i was using Sonos for. To give some examples: no NAS connectivity and no sleep timer….

A ROLLBACK option to the prior major release is urgently needed. This is what a responsible developer should do with a failed release.

 

I hope Sonos executives are paying attention. This release can do a lot of damage to the Sonos brand.

 

Version 80 is disastrous for users with their own Library - gone!  And I understand other users are dealing with worse issues.

Version 80.x is S2. Sonos has never provided a way to go back to previous versions of their software.

Worst ever update till date from Sonos. Half baked item. 
 

current app does not support : 

  1. Network Management
  2. Does not support Alarm modifications 
  3. God knows what else they have taken away.

sonos has been behaving very irresponsibly for this update.  If you have a few networks and some items were in a different network and previously connected well, now cannot connect any more.  
 

please provide a rollback. We don’t want this buggy app.  We will use it Once you fix it.

If you are on Android you can just sideload an old apk

Shocking that users are having to resort to side-loading the old app from a third party just to operate their devices.

Bring back the old Sonos app. It was clunky, but it actually worked!

I am disgusted with this new app. I expect Sonos to buy back all my kit at list price. Without access to my music on my NAS the equipment is useless. Sonos get a grip!

Although it does work a treat! :) 

Can you have too many Sonos speakers? 🤔 😆
