Please share your workarounds for the terrible Sonos app!

Been a loyal Sonos user since 2013 and this latest app is wreaking havoc on my listening. The lag in the volume adjustment is really bad. The only part of controlling the audio that seems to work is the mute, which is the only way to prevent potential hearing loss and wincing looks from everyone in the room.

Like many Sonos users, listening to music is one of the most important parts of my day and, living in a 120 year old house, accessing it in whatever room I’m in is a luxury that Sonos has afforded me for years. Not any more.

So, community, what are your workarounds? I run everything from Tidal using Airplay to connect to Sonos. I tried running everything from Sonos but the interface is too clunky.

    Sorry, but I don’t know what you mean by “rolled back the app”. Could you please clarify?

    Thanks.

    I deleted new app and installed the old app.  Specifically I deleted V80 of the app (the black one) then downloaded and installed V16.1 (the orange one).  The process of “downloading the old app” was a bit involved but for me it was worth it
