I want to know who's responsible…

So, exactly who the hell was it that thought it was a good idea that the volume bars in the app now have numbers? It's taking me twice as long to get the volume right…and of course I simply cannot have anything like 22 or 36, because they aren’t divisible by 5 are they. 🤬

I might have had some small part in that :sweat_smile:

Adding numbers to the volume bar was something I suggested when I first joined the company and have occasionally nudged various people for, so I’m very happy they’re here :smile:

 

I’m glad you’re enjoying it :wink:

“des goûts et des couleurs, on ne discute pas” :grin:  I recall a user’s request to have the numbers in the volume bars for the alarm volume settings

This feature has been requested by several users on this forum.  However, that cannot be the explanation, because, as we are so often told on these pages, Sonos never listens to its customers.

Edit: just saw @James L. ‘s post!

“I am not a number”, but my Sonos volume is!

OK….l agree with the OP.  Let’s get rid of the numbers. Instead when the volume reaches certain levels have continuous scroller stages that read:

1.YOUR VOLUME IS OK

2. POSSIBLE EAR DAMAGE 

3. NEIGHBOR ALERT

4. TURN THE VOLUME DOWN IDIOT

I’m on the latest release and I’m not seeing this.  I assume it’s iOS only?

Is this an Apple only change or am I missing an app update?  I’m on android and don’t see it.  Not complaining, just asking. :grinning:
