Using S1 and S2 components simultaneously

I have an older generation Connect running on the S1 app and my newer Port, Ray, Roam and One SL speakers running on the S2 app. Everything has been working fine until this week. Now, whenever I try to open the S1 app to control the Connect, a screen pops up telling me to switch to the S2 app. I cannot cancel this screen to switch to the S1 app so therefore cannot play through the Connect. I haven't changed any settings, it seems to have happened randomly. The Connect cannot be added to the S2 system. How do I fix this so I can use the S1 app to control the Connect?

The only third party app I have tried is Macronos. Which apps would you recommend?

Oh, Android doesn’t have any real options, though my app will be out soon for Android I hope. It supports split systems simultaneously.

​@controlav , that's great news.

Will it support Sonos playlist transfer etc. too?

Hi ​@Glyntwin 

Thanks! There should be some settings in More Options that will allow you to reset the app, and thus reconnect without needing to unplug your other speakers.

I hope this helps.

It will not have all the features of Phonos Plus today, such as playlist transfer or cross play between S1 and S2, although underneath its actually based on the same codebase (with a very different UX layer). The priority is to get Android users a reliable app for mainline playback scenarios, I will expose the unique features of Phonos Plus over time (UX always takes me ages and I am new to Android).
