Going to need a little more information.  What is it about “finding playlists and editing those playlists” do you wish to discuss?

I'll expand on what they may have meant, but other threads have sort of explained the feature isn't available... and last eta was December, I believe…

I was trying to add songs to a playlist and couldn't find a button to add a song or create a new playlist. Both android and apple devices with up to date apps.

I'll have to grab the laptop and try the web app. I've just also read that it is hit or miss. Hope they get this one in order, lol. The alarm debacle didn't impact me, but the playlist thing is mildly inconvenient. Glad my wife does it more than I do.

May the Gods be praised and may joy be unconfined!! 

WITH TODAY’S APP AND SYSTEM UPDATES, I CAN EDIT, ADD TO, AND CREATE PLAYLISTS AGAIN!! 

I had forgotten what a wonderful thing it is. Nearly 11 months of waiting and waiting (and waiting and waiting), but finally….!

Really! I tried to get an update on Google Play, but no update available.

As noted on the

this is a staged release, not everyone receives it at the same time.

Mmm - I’m obviously not in the Sonos favourite users group because I still can’t create or edit playlists with the latest update. Wonder if their “gradual rollout” is going to take as long as their fixing the bugs they introduced? I’d love to know how they are managing a gradual rollout….

It'll be almost a year since being able to play my own music and playlists, some of which seem to have disappeared.

I bought a Denon speaker to play my own music and haven't bothered with Sonon since then. The Sonos speakers sit there, redundant.

So when you search for any track and then tap the three dots next to it, the menu that comes up doesn’t say “Add to Sonos Playlist” below “Save to Sonos Favourites”?

And then you go to Sonos Favourites → Playlists → and tap on a Playlist that you have created, when you tap the three dots beneath the Playlist title/thumbnails at the top, does it not say “Edit Sonos Playlist”?

Doesn’t give me any edit options - and I’ve just got the latest release 😞. Maybe it will only work on playlists created in the new release?…..but that’s not good if so. 

On a playlist I created in the last month (but before this latest release) I have no album art showing in the overall playlist either. There are different album artworks in the playlist itself, but in the past one was selected. This makes it so much easier to flick through and choose one.
