New iOS and Adroid updates released.

Also firmware update.

 

ht @press250 

PSA #1: firmware update is v16.2 build 79153290, remains compatible with Android v16.1 app

PSA #2: Windows desktop app also updated today, works fine

PSA#3: Windows/Mac desktop apps remain on the old codebase, making them a superb diagnostic and debug tool. If you’re experiencing trouble with the new app, see if the problem exists in the Windows/Mac app. This may help isolate things and save you grief and frustration.

I took the update in the UK just now and the system updating message, but it updated to 80.01.30. Anyone know if this is being released globally at same time or different times in different locations?

Suffice to say none of the new features are available to me, though I am encouraged that they are at least promised in the 80.02.04 update

 

I updated on iOS to 80.02.04 at 15.00 today, UK time.

Update is sorted.  I deleted the iPhone app and redownloaded it and system updated.  Now have “Play Next” and “Add to End of Queue”.  Good start, will keep testing.

Sure is a lot of chatter for: this app is still not operating functionally as it did in its previous iteration(s) with no discernible improvement to end user(s).  
 

Posting on these forums has turned into feeding an echo chamber and a compete exercise in futility.  
 

Sonos, as a company, has completely dropped the ball and left its users to quarrel amongst themselves; instead the user base should be directing their ire at those making these blunderous decisions.

New iOS and Adroid updates released. The release notes from Sonos say 80.02.02, but the app store says its 80.02.04.

PSA #1: firmware update is v16.2 build 79153290, remains compatible with Android v16.1 app

PSA #2: Windows desktop app also updated today, works fine

Thank you I will add this to the OP so maybe more will see this information.

How very true, we as investors in Sonos products have well and truly had the proverbial rug pulled, it is blatantly obvious after a month of pleading and anger that Sonos have a path they wish to follow and are doing just that in disregard of their once loyal customers begging to just have what they paid for.

You are a purchaser of a piece of plastic, wires, semiconductors.  You have invested nothing.

By installing the software you agreed to the terms and conditions of the EULA. 

That's 21st century capitalism for you.  You bought it, you own it.  Nothing more & nothing less.

My quick feedback on this latest update (iOS app version 80.02.04).

Official release notes state the following among other updates:

  • Added “play next” and “add to end of queue”
  • Added sleep timer settings

My observations (with iOS app, local music database on NAS):

  • “play next” and “add to end of queue” only works for individual Songs or whole Albums. I would like to have this function for all songs from specific Artist or Genre. I am sure it worked like that in S2 until this 80.0 apocalypse...
  • I still cannot edit queue (remove songs, change songs order)
  • Sleep timer should be available from “Now Playing” screen - three dots icon at the bottom right. I can see this icon there but it always appears to be inactive (like greyed out) and tapping there does not do anything on my device
