Reconnect to previously used System

Question

I have two Sonos systems, one in one house and another in another house. Each time I travel from one house to the other, the new Sonos app forgets that the other system is mine, and doesn’t automatically reconnect. I have to manually use the “connect to nearby system” function and then it connects. Unfortunately, when I do this, the app forgets the default profiles on each of my music services.  Several of the services will be switched to my wife’s profile instead of mine, so I have to one by one select each service and reset them to my profile. The same thing happens to her. The Wi-Fi networks have the same SSID name and password at both houses.  I never had this issue with the old S2 app, it would automatically find the system, reconnect, and my profiles would be correct. Can this be fixed in a future version? The new app should remember systems that I’ve previously connected to along with the proper service defaults.

Hi @ainge1983Welcome to the Sonos Community! And, apologies for the delay.Sorry to hear of the issues you’ve been having with swapping from one system to another in the Sonos app. The ability to do so automatically will be coming to the new Sonos app, but I currently have no estimate for when that mightbe.All I can suggest in the meantime is perhaps dedicating one phone to each system - at one house, you have control, at another, your wife. I understand this may not be particularly workable, however, depending on how the two of you listen.I hope this helps.
