One screen should be enough

I have Sonos devices in 3 rooms, and I have a tablet in my kitchen that is assigned as the Center of the sound universe.

I want an App, with just a bit of focus on useability.

Top half:  Choose what I want to hear (Spotify/radio app).

Bottom half: Volume level, both one for all and the indivisual levels.

I think the issue is that you’re using a tablet for your interface, and Sonos interface is really more designed for use on a smaller phone screen, and thus fully utilizing the real estate that a tablet provides.

One thing you may want to look into, if an android tablet, is using widgets.  This won’t give you all that you want, but you’ll be able to see what’s playing in all 3 rooms (with 3 widgets)  at the same time and perform some basic functions in each room without multiple clicks.  It won’t give you access to timers, browse, etc though, at least, not the last time I checked.

You may also want to take a look at the PC or Mac apps.

I’m not saying there isn’t room for improvement in the Sonos app, just giving some potential options.
