Hi as per title - Is anyone having problem with Apple Music Recently Added? I'm getting Something went wrong. Try again.

I normally use this ‘feature’ a lot I add new music in Apple Music app and then switch to Sonos to play it. I’ve been away a few days and just got back and I’m now getting this error. Everything else is OK. I tried removing and re adding service but same error. I’ve log the problem with Sonos support. Thanks

Have you contacted Apple, since they are responsible for their ‘plug in’ in the Sonos app?

Same problem here! Just add it to the Sonos problem pile. I’m so ready to get off this boat.

As a very simple workaround, use Apple Music App to find your recently added item, long press/right click, and Add to PlayList, create a new Apple Music PlayList say ‘Sonos RA’ (Recently Added). Pin that Playlist on the Sonos App home page as a favourite. Job done.

I’m now using ‘Favorite’ (star the song in Apple Music).

then go to Sonos app → Your Service → Apple Music → Playlist→ Favourite Songs →  [。。。] →  save to Sonos Favorites 

Go back to Sonos app, you can find Favorite playlist

Same here - very annoying as it’s the only part I use - having to use AirPlay at the moment

Airplay1 or 2’s quality is not the best

I agree absolutely, never normally use it!

To All

I tried accessing “Recently Added” on the iOS Mobile App and MacOS Desktop App and the results were the same. Typically both Apps don’t exhibit the same issues for 3rd party apps as the operating systems handle them slightly differently.

This IMO closely resembles a possible change in the Apple Music API that Sonos hasn’t discovered. Not saying that Sonos isn’t going to most likely have to remedy the issue; but the origins don’t appear to be on the Sonos side of things (directly). I could be wrong.

Hopefully, a Mod will see this thread next week and possibly chime in. 🤞

What is the ETA on the solution? No way it takes this long; infrastructure and engineers are horrible.  I’m switching to Denon - Heos soon as I move.

I suggest you read my post again. There was no mention of an impending solution by Sonos. Everything mentioned was MY OPINION based upon my experiences. Do you think I work for Sonos in some capacity? I’m just another Sonos user as you are. If this IMO minor glitch in the app is going to cause you to ditch Sonos you obviously have other issues with Sonos that need to be discussed.

How does one give an ETA on fixing a bug? You need to be able to reproduce it, do the research as to what may be causing it, figure out a way to rewrite the code to ‘fix’ it, get it looked at to figure out if it actually ‘fixes’ the issue, check to see that the ‘fix’ doesn’t break anything else, test it again, then release it to QA for their testing, then release it to a beta group for further testing, then figure out where it fits in the production release schedule. 

Teams that I’ve worked on wouldn’t be able to estimate all that. 

And that presumes two things, first, that it’s a Sonos bug, and actually a bug. If it’s an Apple bug, there are several more considerations, including how important Apple feels about working on code that serves a tiny percentage of their user base, amongst others.

After Sonos overhauled their app in May 2024 and introduced major issues, they did a decent job of communicating planned fixes through their blog and Reddit updates. Since many bugs still remain, it might be wise for them to return to that transparent approach.
