Revert App on App Store?

I just got screwed for tomorrow. I use the Sonos speaker in my room as my alarm with my phone to control, and once I updated to the new app, that was the end of that. No ability to add, edit or adjust alarms from the new phone app. I do not have a desktop app which is support’s idea of a workaround for releasing an unfinished app with no way to revert the old app..? The workaround should be to revert and wait till the app has the same or better functionality. If I had the option to revert to the old app on the App Store this would not have been an issue. Please let us all go back until this app has parity with the old app (at least!).

Download the 16.1 APK. Problem solved

Actually saved my ruined day , thank you !

My whole system was not working anymore after updating , had to factory reset and try reinstalling everything while the app loses the connection 95% of the times. Adding my sub also just crashed the app on all devices.

Rerolled and it's all fixed.

Thanks !

Oh holy crap! What has Sonos done to the app? I get that occasional UX improvements are a thing, but completely removing several critical features in the product is NOT an upgrade.

This new “Version 80.0” is HORRIBLE!!!! It removed the Widget, which was my primary quick interface for glancing at the currently-playing song title, volume adjustments and back/skip. It’s totally Gone. That’s like 25% of the product functionality just ..GONE overnight!

Then, I laid down as I do at night to go to sleep and….where the hell is the sleep timer? Another critical feature just...GONE.

In ONE UPDATE Sonos has gone from fantastic to just...unusable. Other than eventually finding my playlists and being able to hit [Play] there is ZERO functionality to this app update.

TERRIBLE!

(EDIT: thankfully APKMirror.com has most prior versions. I was able to uninstall the latest garbage, and simply download one version back (16.1) and reinstall it. I’m back to functional again! I’ll just take precautions to not update the app any longer (or the speakers, if it comes down to it) and that will solve the issue. Everything’s working fine now and there’s no reason to ever update at this point.)

If you, Sonos, insist on imposing incomplete, untested software on your (previously) loyal customers, then at least provide a way back to a working version.

I.T. fundamentals!

After a couple of app updates since the original disaster in early May, I can now no longer play many radio stations, the app takes over two minutes to load (on a reasonably current Android device), and now can't play my radio stations via the browser app.

Please provide the previous version app for those of us that do not wish to join you on this 'journey'.
