The S2 app works for me.

I just read that Sonos will not re-issue the old app (S2) because this would make thinks worse.

That is a terrible lie.

A few days after the may 7 disaster, I found on a forum that some people solved their problem by reinstalling the old app from a alternative app store. And that worked fine for me for two months until beginning of august when I was forced to upgrade the app (the old app refused to launch and said I had to upgrade).

But I have another old device that can not receive updates and that on is perfectly working with the old S2 app.

My question are : why, after all this, Sonos is lying ?

Why do they hate their customers at this level ?

How do they want their customers to trust them is they don’t trust their customers ?

Why don’t they let us choose if the old S2 is worse or not ?

Why are the people accountable for this disaster still in charge ?

Is there anyone sensible in this company or are they just trying to shut it down ?

All they’re doing is incomprehensible

End of August and their new app is still trash. What a joke.

For you maybe, but it’s working for some people, myself included. If not done already, it maybe best to reproduce any issue(s) seen and then immediately submit a Sonos system diagnostic report from within the Sonos App, note it’s reference and contact/chat with Sonos Support Staff via this LINK and see what the Staff can perhaps suggest to help you to resolve the matter.

What about the missing features ?

While they are working on fixing bugs and crash, we are still waiting for the features they removed 4 months ago. Who can still possibly think at Sonos that is acceptable ?

The only thing I’m missing now @rvxtrm is the queue management and even by that I mean the option to reorder a queue, rather than just shuffle it. I don’t use Sonos playlists as I store my own playlists in both Amazon/Apple Music (synced using Soundiiz) and I use .m3u playlists for the local library. I can’t think of anything else that’s now missing that I need, personally.

I have always had access to my local library as I’ve been using SMBv2/3 since 2019/2020. I also find the Sonos search quick and easy too across all the musuc services and local library. As per attached clip from an iPad controller.

All my downgraded systems work great over here on S1 including SMBv1 support, no screenshots provided.

That is not relevant to this thread: we are talking about S2 and its compatibility with the v79 app

Oh yeah, queue management, please !

And the ability to browse an album from the song you are listening to, or to add it to a playlist.

Waited almost 4 months already, now they promise this for October.

What a mess, really, this not respectful.
