I read many topics about downgrading your speaker to S1 where they say:
“chose option to downgrade the wired device”
I don’t see this option in the app. Can someone answer me: is downgrading still possible, or has it be intentionally blocked out?
downgrading play 3 to S1

Unfortunately with the new Sonos app, the ability to downgrade a Sonos product to S1 is temporarily unavailable, but will return in a future update.

Which update? It would be helpful to know when to expect the release. Similar to other feedback, I am trying to use Play 1 and Play 3 together but the Sonos 1 controller no longer identifies Play 3. Really frustrating.

The August 6 app update added the S2 to S1 downgrade tool.

TLDR: same issues and tried everything, didn’t work still
Recently purchased the Sonos Play:3 from a friend and I’m having the same issue trying to downgrade it to S1.
Things I’ve tried: I followed every step to downgrade it on the S2 app and it left me with “We were unable to downgrade your Play:3”. Then a done button or below it a “Contact Sonos Support”. Of course I pressed the last option. In that screen there is
-
Unplug your product and plug it back in. Wait for it to restart and try again.
-
Restart your mobile device.
-
Restart your router.
If you're still having a problem, contact Customer Care. We're here to help.
I tried all of the suggestions and when pressing the costumer care link it just sent me to a white screen.
I’m thinking it’s just a software issue that will hopefully be fixed with a future update but if anyone has any other suggestions, I’d be more than willing to try them.
