Hey all! We've got a new update live for both iOS and Android — here's a quick breakdown of what's changed. Want the full history of what we've been up to? Check out our App Release Notes here and System (Player) Release Notes here.

As always, this is a Phased Rollout, think of it like a wave; not everyone gets it at the same time. If you're on iOS and want to nudge it along, head to the App Store, pull down on your Account page (the one showing pending updates), and give it a refresh. That usually does the trick.

What's New:

App Update

Android & iOS - 85.00.31

About Your System Refresh (iOS only) - We've given the About Your System page a makeover.
TuneIn Removal from Home Screen - If you have Old TuneIn shortcuts saved in your Home we are starting to remove any broken links. There will be a prompt to “Fix It” to help you migrate links to the new TuneIn.
iOS/iPadOS 17 Support Ending - If your device is running iOS or iPadOS 17, the app will no longer receive updates on those versions. Updating to iOS/iPadOS 18 or higher will allow you to keep receiving app updates on that device.
Additional Grouping Option in Music Library Settings - Album Artist sorting now includes "Both" as an option, making it easier to group albums the way you'd expect.
Sonos Radio Ad Personalization - US listeners on Sonos Radio's free tier may see a pop-up for device-specific privacy settings. Opting in helps serve more relevant ads to your listening habits.
Back end changes related to messaging, content refresh, and home screen.

Player Update

Modern: 95.0-77060
Legacy: 86.7-77050

As always, feedback is welcome. The good, bad, or in between. We read it all.

After installing this update, I can no longer delete songs from the queue on Android. Any suggestions?

Check that you’ve applied both the controller update, and the speaker’s firmware update. I’d then try a reboot of your Sonos devices, as well as the device you’re running the Android controller on. If none of that fixes the issue, I’d call Sonos Support to discuss it.

When you speak directly to the Support staff, they have tools at their disposal that will allow them to give you advice specific to your network and Sonos system.

You are sliding the track to the left to delete it?

All good so far, did notice after an update on my Fritzbox earlier in month lost my local library connection. Could not get library to recognise NAS 'name'. Eventually appending the ip address instead, before the shared folder name, solved it.

HD / Hi-Res indicators on local library content please... sometime.

Since this release my largest (47,300 track) playlist will not load in the app (Android)...

Loads well in Windows and plays/presents OK in Android once loaded that way:

It is just no longer viewable (and so playable) from Android in its own right:

Was fine prior to this release…

(I did a re-index and app stop/clear/reload...)

Seems odd, certainly. I would call Sonos Support to discuss it.
