I changed Wi-Fi networks and managed to connect my play three with a bridge, to my S1 app. Now it won’t connect for some reason and I think I need to reset the play three with or without the bridge I don’t know. So I can re-connect the play three to the S1 app. I have an S2 app for my Romi in another part of the house, when I try to open the S1 app it tells me to use the S2 app. that would change the two profiles I have for the separate speakers.

Is there a reason you want to use the Play 3 with the S1 app? The Play 3 is compatible with the S2 app, so why not update it to S2?
this would make your life a whole lot easier with just one app IMO.
I could be wrong with these steps, but
- Remove the Bridge: it is NOT needed any longer
- Force close the S1 app and reset the Play 3
- once it comes back up with a green light, open the S2 app and go into settings an select Add Speaker or Component.
You should see the Play 3 appear as available. Simply select it and allow it to go through the updates.
Leave the BRIDGE out of the equation completely, there are enough reported issues with them. Instead, hang your PLAY:3 off of your WiFi network, or wire it directly to your router.
I happen to run S2 on both of my (not stereo paired) PLAY:3s. The BRIDGE won’t run S2 (yet another reason to retire it), but the PLAY:3s will, if you choose. That way, you’ll only be running one controller.
In the past, when dealing with two systems (S1 and S2), I found it easier for me to unplug all devices of the ‘other’ OS, just so I wouldn’t get any error or ‘upgrade’ messages that I didn’t want.
It sounds like the app is trying to unify everything under S2, which is causing confusion with your separate setups. Before resetting, try removing the Play:3 from the S1 app (if possible) and re-adding it after a reboot. A full reset should be the last option since it may affect your existing configuration.
