Heads up: "Update Required" prompt in the Sonos app
Hi everyone 🖖
Just wanted to keep you looped in as we roll out the latest app update this week.
Most of you won't see any changes, but for a small percentage of users running older software, you may encounter an "Update Required" screen. This is a new minimum requirement to make sure your system includes the benefits of our most recent updates, such as improved reliability, streaming performance, and sound quality.
What you need to know:
• If your Sonos system is running an older version (more than 6 months old, prior to firmware version 92.0 for modern players or 86.2 for legacy players), you’ll be prompted to update to the latest firmware.
• Simply run the update (it should only take a few minutes) and you’re good to go.
• You’ll also see an option to toggle on Auto-updates, which we recommend to keep things running smoothly in the future.
If you already have auto-updates enabled, your system will have done this in the background. No actions required on your part.
As always, if you run into any hitches during the update process or have questions about your specific setup, drop a comment below. We’re here to help get you back to enjoying the music 🎶
