Hello everybody,

Since the new app deployment in may, i had to wait several monthes to be able just to see my playlits in the app.

Now i can see and play them but, several monthes after, and despite “hundred of engineers working to improve the this app” (dixit director of innovation) i still can not modify them !

Sonos help seems to avoid dealing with that.

My app is IOs app.

Do some of you find a way to add/suppress titles in playslists ?

Thanks for help.

Emmanuel.

Hi ​@emdu38 

Welcome to the Sonos Community!

We are working to bring editing of playlists back to the Sonos app, but I do appreciate that it will not be soon enough for many.

As for your question regarding the addition or suppression of titles in playlists, I do not understand - could you please perhaps add some screenshots of the app to illustrate what it is that you mean/intend? Thanks.

Is this still planned for December or has the date been moved again?

Hi ​@EbayYellow 

I can’t find a date for that, sorry.

Found it. Got confused by the format change of the coming feature page but it’s there.
 

​@emdu38 playlist editing is supposed to return in December see this page https://support.sonos.com/en-ca/article/the-new-sonos-app-and-future-feature-updates

They post updates there so worth checking periodically to see if it’s on track or pushed back again.

Hello ​@Corry P 

When i open my app, first issue is that playlists are available... or not… or after 20 minutes… or after a close/reopen app procedure, or juste one the playlists,  …. this is really unpredictable.

Secondly, when i’m in the playlist screen, and i enter a playlist, i have no “remove from playlist” optiion beside all titles, nor “rename the playlist” (or remove) beside the title of the playlit.

Thridly whan I play a title a want to add to a playlit, no option to “add title to a sonos playlist”.

It’s impossible to understand nor accept that a compagny as sonos is not able to provide a such simple functionnality. In addition, this functionnality wa existing in previous app version.

Please give me a real roadmap for the app: date < - - > functionalities.

Regards,

Emmanuel

There’s no timeline anymore.

Sonos rarely releases that kind of information and the recent App mess and promises did not go well.

Major changes at Sonos may see progress  but they were just made.

This isn’t true for the return of features that they took away with the POS app release. They’ve missed dates for deliverables but that’s besides the point.

Hi ​@emdu38 

My apologies - at present, I have no ETA for playlist editing returning to the app.
