RE: A big update is coming to the Sonos app
Chris, it would be if it's true. I assumed it was, but usually Jonathan has good information and if he heard that the accessibility of the new app is terrible then I am sure he has good reasons to say this. If I hear back from my Sonos contact I will certainly provide that information. In any case, we'll find out in a day and a half provided you choose to upgrade. I have two systems, one at home and one at my retail store and I may just try it first there with an iPad we have before updating the app on my phone.

RE: A big update is coming to the Sonos app
I just did a Google search for "Will the new Sonos app maintain Voiceover accessibility" and the first search result was a link to exactly that question which was asked by another blind Sonos user in the Sonos community. Here is the reply given by a Sonos employee: Welcome to the Sonos Community! Apologies for the delay - I wanted to ensure I had a correct answer for you. Yes, the new Sonos app has been tested with voice-over and will continue to be accessible to voice-over users. We aim to keep improving this experience and our ultimate goal is to have an even better experience for voice-over users with our new app update. I hope this helps.

Your products, features, and services will work as they always have, and all your settings will be saved. What new features does the update include? We’ll reveal more details when the update is available. The email did include a "preview" link, I believe there are some visuals on that website which may show some of the new look, but the below information is also provided, let's hope Sonos will maintain their excellent track record regarding Voiceover accessibility and the new app will be fully accessible as the app has been now for around 11 or 12 years. I used to be a beta tester for Sonos, but stopped quite a long time ago so I have no personal experience with this update yet and will find out what it's like on May 7 as everybody else.
