Has any one had any Issues with Sonos today?. I have 4 speakers all of them seem to have dropped off as speakers on the Sonos app. I can cast from Spotify to them so I know the speakers work. When I open the app the speakers don’t appear at the bottom of the screen as part of the system . I have readded them still no luck . I even reset the network connection on each speaker . Any ideas?

On a related note.

How has the Sonos app been behaving over recent months?

Are there still residual or periodic issues?

I downgraded all my speakers, bar one, to the S1 app months ago which has been chugging along nicely since.

The one speaker still on current app is rarely used, seems ok when I do use it.

It’s not too bad, it’s fast loading the services but quite slow loading the system devices. I use the sleep mode every night, music seems to help me sleep these days . I can never get the volume of Spotify right on the app it’s either too quiet or too loud. I find the home pod app easier to set volume , even the chrome cast audio plays nicer with the volume controls. My speakers appear at the bottom of the app page often really slow to appear. It’s often quicker for me to cast from the Spotify app to the speakers than the actual Sonos app. I think it struggles with my Orbi mesh system. My issues last night was none of my 4 speakers would show at the bottom of the screen it looked like a loading issue.

I've honestly had no issues with the Sonos app, right through the hole debacle that was the upgrade. There were some niggly little thing but my system just kept on rocking through the whole thing.

Ditto.

Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.
