MAY 21 UPDATE: New fixes have come through in the most recent Sonos App Update. Check out the release notes here. Known issues will continue to be updated as more information is collected. Thanks for your patience

I wanted to share with you all the most up to date information regarding the new Sonos App and what the road forward looks like around future feature updates. Additionally, I know a number of you have been calling for a thread of known issues and work arounds.

I will be keeping this topic up to date as we continue to update the app, so you can know at a glance what's on deck and when you can expect feature functionality to return.

Note: Known issues and workarounds require you to be completely up to date on your controller app as well as your speaker firmware. Check out this topic for more info.

To access these changes, check for updates in the iOS / Android app store to download the latest version of the Sonos app. Make sure your Sonos products are also up to date.
