Just curious, but how do you select a particular room or speaker to play music on? I was able to access the system settings no problem, but I have had little success selecting a particular room and then select for example my Apple Music subscription to find a particular artist, album or playlist. I actually don't even use Sonos all that much, my sighted wife does more, but until I can reliably select where I want to play whatever music I want to play, I won't update my iPhone.

Hi Sieghard. I also was able to check for a firmware update and found that there was none. After playing around with the app, I was able to locate most everything within the app. I certainly agree that the app needs some big accessibility improvements. However, for me, I find it quite useable. I originally updated the app on my iPad. Earlier today, I updated the app on my iPhone 15 pro Max, running IOS 17.5 RC. You have to swipe quite a bit because touching the screen does absolutely nothing. It tells me that true play is off no matter how many times I tap to change the option. However, I know that it is changing because I can hear the change in the sound from the speaker that is playing. Also, My sighted wife says that the icon changes. I hope Sonos address the VoiceOver accessibility issues sooner rather than later. But for me, The app is useable. > On May 8, 2024, at 1:10 PM, Sieghard Weitzel <siegh...@live.ca> wrote: > > Larry, I just replied to another message of Richard's, but just in case you > didn't see o rread it entirely, it does not appear that this app update comes > with a hardware update or requires one.
