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:

Whenever they make it to Android I’ll appreciate them, it will certainly make balancing several of my groups easier If I can just set them to known numbers to start off with.

 

As far as I can tell, at the moment there is no way to use the numbers in a meaningful way, such as in presets.

Pause your music, set up your group, set each speaker to a volume number based on previous experience, hit play. Then adjust the group volume as needed.

Now on Android, all you can do is the above, but trying to get close to what you want using only the slider’s position.

 

Folks have been requesting various Group related presets, having pre-set volume levels would be a nice addition if Sonos ever decides to provide them.
