BaratundeSo… with all the dispiriting news of late I just want to add to the pile. The new @Sonos iOS app has kind of ruined my life. Pretty much everything is worse. Search. Choosing speakers. Favorites. Basic connectivity. Picking songs to play. In a time of rising fascism I need easy access to soothing and revolutionary jams. Do better Sonos!
Chop@baratunde @Sonos It’s so depressing. Even if you get it to work, you can’t do basic shit like make a playlist or add a song to play next.
@chopaganda @Sonos I just looked at the app reviews. They are almost ALL one star. Sonos has literally ruined their product and brand with one update. It’s so much worse than I thought
@baratunde @Sonos For a product that earned a loyal audience through simplicity and just working.
Derek Carroll@baratunde @Sonos I agree it’s not great, but at least they didn’t make an entirely new app this time.
(I’d much rather they work on speakers not going AWOL than redoing the interface.)
Ken@baratunde @Sonos I tried Sonos, didn't like the app requirements and how it wanted access to everything!!
I went with a #Bluesound speaker and BlueOS app and I'm very happy with the flexibility and playback.🎶
J. Nathan Matias 🦣@baratunde @Sonos oof. One of the promises of an app for everything was that products could get better even after you buy them. Unfortunately, the opposite can also happen, sigh.
