When will Sonos Playlist be back?

Bumper is absolutely correct. If you download phonos+, it will list your Sonos playlists. You can select any playlist; start playback; and go back to the Sonos S2 app (updated version) and control volume, EQ, speaker grouping. You can also add tracks to the playlist if you want, although they will not be saved.

It’s not a perfect solution, but it does restore access to those Sonos playlists you’ve lost ever since the new Sonos controller app came to town. Which is a vast improvement Sonos has yet to offer in any of its updates since May 2024. It’s also a great relief to find that your Sonos playlists have not been lost forever. They’re still intact.

I'm on Android. Luckily, I had created my main playlists on Spotify.
I no longer use Sonos on my phone to listen to my music but Spotify.

They did it again.  Another nail in the coffin.  I was using s2 on my wife’s phone to access my Sonos playlists, but as of yesterday, Sonos says I’m not allowed to do that.  Can’t open S2 anymore on her phone.  It is forcing her to update.  I guess they are doing everything in their playbook to stop me from accessing my playlists.  

Still no news if Sonos playlist will ever come back.  Anyone hear anything?

I thought the playlist would be back in July,  any updates?

Full playlist functionality Sept/Oct

Wow that's crazy , but thank you for the update,  I got a bad feeling it's not coming back I hope I'm wrong tho

This ‘ambiguously’ mentions ‘Restoring edit mode for Playlists and the Queue’.  Not directly calls out ‘Sonos Playlists’.  Ive asked support many times and they don’t seem to understand what ‘Sonos Playlists’ are.  At least not from any communcations.  I cannot get a straight answer on this.  I can only assume (a) they are poor communicators, (b) they are not in schedule and or c) they don’t known what Sonos Playlists are.

I created an awesome Sonos Playlist for a pool party this past weekend but there is now way to save it.  I was using my wife's phone to manage playlists on S2, but now they are forcing her to update and stop me completely from be able to manage my ‘Sonos’ playlists.

That doesn't sound like we getting are playlist back unfortunately and if we do I wouldn't be surprised if it's a fee attached 

My ‘Sonos playlists’ do not display at all in the new app on my ipad. I can only see them and access them using a 3rd party app (Phonos+). Do others have Sonos playlists displayed in the new app? I definitely do not; and Sonos support never has been able to remedy that.

Creating new Sonos playlists and/or editing existing Sonos playlists would be icing on the cake in my universe. I don’t have Sonos playlists in the new app at all, other than via a solution found outside the tools Sonos provides.

I’ve asked whether the reference to ‘restoring edit mode for Playlists and the Queue’ is a roundabout way of saying my Sonos playlists will be restored. Another very helpful frequent commenter in the Sonos Community responded by telling me that’s a stupid question.

So there we are.

I was on a USFS fire crew for a few years, way back when I was in my 20s. We’d get calls in the wee hours of the morning to show up for dispatch to a fire; and then stand around to ‘hurry up and wait.’

‘Hurry up and wait’ seems to be an operating principle at Sonos as well.
