Sonos' controversial app update in May was "obviously a failure," Sonos CEO Patrick Spence told Reuters today.
When the update launched in May, customers revolted over missing features, like the ability to search music libraries, edit song and playlist queues, and set sleep timers. In addition, some already purchased hardware, especially older models, began having problems.
In a note to investors on Tuesday, Sonos said that "more than 80 percent of the app's missing features have been reintroduced." The app should be "almost 100 percent restored in the coming weeks." Sonos has been updating the app every two weeks in an effort to bring it to parity with the old one.
