![]() Hopefully the zone area view in the Rooms tab is more compressed to prevent the need for lot of scrolling. I understand that the UI for people with multiple Sonos components may look way more crowded. The new app is also slower than the previous version for me. The need to swipe down to reveal the tab area in unfortunate but not a big deal for me as it's just swiping down instead of right/left in the 7.4 (can't remember which way you needed to swipe to show the side menu). I've learnt the new navigation and don't mind it at all when the errors are fixed. The alternative I tried did not have a usable queue management so I didn't switch to it. I tried using an alternative in the past but I have not yet found a product that would have a queue management as good as Sonos - maybe there is?

First, stop playing music in any of your rooms. There's another function of the long press, and that's being able to move recently stopped music to another room. ![]() That second player will join the first one’s group and start playing the same music in sync. First, you have to start playing music on a player, (it can be from an alarm or any other source), and then just hold the button for a few seconds on another player. With 8.0, you can press and hold the Play/Pause button (or mute on older players) to have your player join the most recently active player as a group. Once the setting is on, Apple Music songs with the explicit tag will no longer play on your system. Right now, this is working for Apple Music, and we’re hoping to add it for more services soon. Within Settings > Parental Controls, you can set a system-wide setting to filter songs with explicit content. We think this will make it a lot easier to find what you’re looking for. You can add services, make alarms, get some help, and access all your settings. It hasn’t changed, just moved to an easy to find spot.Īll the settings and options are in here. The active room has a Group button to have it add others to the party. That includes if it was started by Alexa.
