The app now makes me so angry that i'm this close to just selling my beam gen 2 altogether. After this update, it keeps losing my wifi and i have to keep reconnecting it. After every time it connecfs, it keeps saying i dont have any sonos proctucts. True play is a joke so i can't calibrate anything anymore. Plus the sound the sound completely drops out from my tv altogether, so i got to factory reset everything all over again. 😠

Yeah honestly tvs won't replace projectors. I feel projectors have a way of pulling you in more i'm not 100 percent why i feel that way. Also projectors still can do a 125 inch screen. It is nice though tvs are finally dropping in price.

It is horrible, since the release im so disappointed with my 6 speakers system. The equalizer doesnt even work for me, i cant even shut down my subwoofer through the app or adjust any levels. It’s extremely laggy while changing songs or volume, so now i mostly play music straight from the spotify app. If the system wasnt many years old i would return it no doubt

They ruined software that wasn't even close to ready so they could sell headphones. Speakers drop every time I play music. Takes ten to fifteen seconds to even play/pause when it works. Airplay is even sketchy most of the time. And apparently, they took out the part of not selling customer information from their TOS.

😳🫣 Get out of Here with the Garbage Ultra Short Throw Projector Comparisons!!!! A Typical Short Throw Projector or a Long Throw Projector Doesn't require a Screen that Costs more than a $100.00. There are Numerous DIY KZfaq Videos on DIY Home Theater Screens. I Bought a New True 4K LG Cinebeam Projector that has a Built in TV tuner on Sale for $1000.00 and it Blows away the Hisense U76N. I paired it with a 125 inch Max Ultra White Screen for $100.00. So do Not Shill for the TV Manufacturers. The Best Home Theaters have At Least a 120 inch Screen and a Projector, Not a Garbage Ultra Short Throw Projector. UST Projectors are inferior in picture quality to Normal Projectors. They cost too much...

@@HiFiBrothers The average person is Buying TCL S3 and S4 TV'S and similar Hisense, and Lesser Brands TV'S. They are Not buying expensive TV'S. 75% of consumers most likely more than that are Not going to spend more than $600.00 on a TV ever. The Most Sold TV'S are the Least Expensive TV'S across All the TV Brands. This year and Last year I watched / heard TCL when they announced their New TV'S. The Spokesperson said that the Vast Majority of the TVS that they sell are the S3 and S4 TV'S. TCL is trying to get those people to spend more money on Higher Quality TV'S. The Head of the TV Division said that is why they came out with the S5 and the Q6 Models to Hopefully get more people into the Higher end TV'S that they sell. TV'S that Cost over $1,000.00 are Less than 10% of All TV'S sold worldwide. Women don't Geek out like Men do about a TV'S Picture Quality, about the Size of a 100 inch TV. Women (Like 95% of Women) would much Rather be Taken out to the Movie Theater. They don't want a Home Theater because then it is Less Likely she will be going out to a Lot of Movies and Dinners. The Home Theater Market with Projectors has Never been a Large Segment of the World Population. The people who are using Projectors are more Numerous than the people who Buy $1,000.00 and up TV'S. Honestly people who spend money 🤑 💰 on High end Projectors they Buy High end TV'S too. Audio Video Nerds don't think: I have a 100 inch TV now, so I don't Need my 300 inch Screen in my Professional Movie Theater anymore... No these People Love Technology and don't ever want to Give up their Large Screen Movie Theaters. I have more than $30,000.00 invested in my own Home Theater, which is Peanuts compared to what people with real money spend on their Home Theaters. I would have to say DIY, and Professionally Installed Home Theaters are Easily at the Highest level today then they have ever been at. Because it is Easier than it has ever been to DIY a Quality Home Theater. The Quality and Range of Projectors (As you know I consider a UST Projector Really Just an overly Expensive Flawed TV.) available today is at it Zenith and the Popularity of Projectors are Not being diminished by the Large Screen TV's that are being sold today. For example College Dorm rooms (People who don't have much money to spend throughout society.) are full of Students that Buy $300.00 to $600.00 LED Projectors and use the wall to give themselves a 100 inch Screen. Some don't have room for that size so they are happy with a 50 inch image. A few things are Behind this. They want a Big Screen but they can't afford a High Quality TV. Also They can easily Lock up their Projector. Yes Theft is very Big in college housing and in low rent housing. Amazon is selling Tens of Thousands of Projectors Worldwide yearly because People Love them. The Projector market is Thriving.

With this forced update I lost the ability to access Qobuz playlists in the iOS app as many others have noted. Apparently Sonos says this is Qobuz's fault which is patently absurd. That's like the tail waging the dog. And apparently Sonos is digging in its heels on this one with no plans to fix it. I'm heavily invested in Sonos gear but that is about to change. Sonos' continued and utter disregard for its customers is just too much and this is the last straw. I hope the used market gets flooded with Sonos gear. It is time for diligent KZfaq influencers to advise their viewers to dump Sonos and help us find options. They have proven not only that they don't care about their new or long term customers but they also appear to be utterly incompetent at this point. We can rant all we want but Sonos won't change until enough people walk away.

The app is utter garbage and they need to scrap the app; I have to restart my android app 2 to 3 times to get it to work. Always defaults to System not Found. It takes 6 seconds to adjust the volume to update, Can't play Get the Shot - dominant predation song from youtube music. Also when my phone screen times out and goes black and I open app again and nothing is loaded. Lately I found that my sonos is going into mute mode without my input. Android wigit is gone. Each time I open the app it makes me so disappointed. They try to solve the app issues by releasing headphones. Just look at the stock price since the release of the app in May.
