I have connected to Sonos 1 speakers to my bridge which is downstairs. I want to move one of the speakers upstairs, but it cannot find the relocated speaker when I plug it in in the new location (upstairs).

I, too, have moved my components into different rooms and now I cannot find anyway to rename them in either my iPhone app or the Sonos app on my Windows 10 laptop. I tried to find Manage > Room Settings as directed in the first answer above but that option is just not there. Has the app been changed? How do I do this simple thing?

Firstly. Make sure your controller AND all your Sonos units are at software version 7.2 (Check About My Sonos)
If at the latest version then on iOS select Settings -- Room Settings -- Click Room name -- Then click room name again and you will have the option to edit the name.

Thanks. All components are on 7.2 but controller is on 7.0. The controller software cannot get updated (I have posted another question online about that). At this point, I guess I have to uninstall the controller software and reinstall it to see if that works. This is quite frustrating.

Can you have another controller that *is* on 7.2? You could use that one (on a phone, or tablet, perhaps) to make those changes, since the speakers are already on 7.2.
