New Sonos App support for Fire HD

Sonos support for the Fire HD has always been weak.  The new app (80.03) is a step backwards. 

I use my Fire HD 8 in landscape mode.  Sonos software seems to make little or no adjustment for landscape mode.  The album art has always been squeezed into a small space -- the controls are larger than they need to be, so the art gets squeezed.  The new software version makes the art even smaller.  Is the new version working on improving landscape mode?

I am happy to send screen shots.  I am also available to test any beta of the FireOS if that is helpful.

Hi @P Butler, the new android app is absolutely ‘behind’ the new iOS app. That said, the iPadOS app also fails to make use of the extra screen real estate, for example, artists and albums are displayed as a vertical list rather than a grid (as was the case in the old app). One hopes that once Sonos emerges from the swamp of fixing bugs and missing functionality, they’ll get around to proper tablet versions.
