New Player and App Update Available! Sept '25πŸ”Š

Related content:Software

πŸ—£οΈ Hi Everyone πŸ”Š

This morning, we deployed an update for iOS and Android as well as a small patch to our firmware (Player). See below for a run down of what's changed. If you'd like a look at what has changed over the last few months, check out our App Release Notes here, as well as our System (Player) Release Notes here.

As with most updates, this will be a Phased Rollout, which means that you may (or may not) get the update pushed to your system. Some iOS users have sidestepped this in the past, by going directly to the App Store. If you still do not see the update, try refreshing the App Store by pulling down (as if you were refreshing a page) on the Account page that shows all your pending app updates.

Β 

In the App update:


Android & iOS - 80.27.6
Β 

  • Fast Scroll in Queue for iOS
    • You can now fast scroll in the queue, and opening the queue will jump to the track that is currently playing.
  • Group Volume sync with haptic feedback.
    • Want to have all your rooms at the same volume level? Move the group volume all the way to the left, wait for a small buzz, now all your rooms will follow the group volume.

Β 

Once you have updated the app, you will be required to update the system (Players).

Β 

In the Player update:

Β 

Firmware - 90.0-68140Β 

Β 

  • Fix for unexpected increase in bass output
  • Fix for Trueplay tuning failing on Arc Ultra with Sub or surrounds.

Β 

As always please do not hesitate to share your feedback (about the new Group Volume sync, or anything really), myself and the team genuinely appreciate it! πŸ™πŸ½

No Comments in over 17 days. I don’t even check this anymore, just happened to this morning to see if any new features were added. Still no Save button in the IOS app. I guess it’s not happening. Waiting for this thread to be deactivated by Sonos. I give up.Β 

+1 Owners deserve a clear explanation about what’s happening with the β€œsave queue to playlist” feature. It had been a core part of the app for years, and I personallyΒ relied on it heavily. If it’s not returning, Sonos needs to communicate that directly ASAP.Β

Sadly, since the recent replies have restarted the lock timer it won't lock soon.

You’ve been around long enough to know every thread is locked after a set timeΒ of inactivity.Β  To suggest Sonos locks threads due to content is sheer misinformation.Β

Sorry, been offline for a while. I just read your reply, and the fact that two people seemed to agree. I am patiently waiting for the above mentioned app feature and this is the only thread I am aware of to communicate to the Sonos group. My frustration is, and what I meant, is that I have experience over the past year orΒ so, that after finding a thread to communicate on, Sonos eventually will close it out. I know it has something to do with inactivity and thanks for pointing that out. But I never said that Sonos locks threads due to content. So, if you all thought that is what I meant, that is not the case. But every time a thread closes, it takes me forever to find another one, such as this one. I don’t even remember how I stumbled upon this one, unless maybe I received an email maybe. I can’t remember.Β

You can't communicate with the Sonos folksΒ (other than forum moderators for the most part) here, you need to call in.

Scroll up and look, not one Sonos Staff post on this page.

Yes the mods try to help but their time, resources and ability to push things upstream is limited.

Here’s a unique idea:Β  If a thread you are interested is locked due to inactivity and you can’t find one that is similar, open a new one!

Hi ​@John GuarrΒ 

Alternatively, request of a moderator that the thread in question be re-opened - it won’t be a problem to do so.

Sonos has the worst interface in the industry.Β  I unplugged my two Sonos 2 speakers to move them and it took 2 hours to set them up again.Β  Could not get them to work together.Β  Very painful.Β  Had to do a factory reset, lost all my content.Β  This issue has been going on for years.Β  I’m about to throw them in the garbage and buy Apple speakers.Β  I will NEVER buy another Sonos product!!!

It odd, I’ve moved at least 6 times, I’ve always followed the FAQ, and never had an issue. Why did you need to factory reset?Β
