Google is moving quickly to restore some of the features and functionality it previously removed from multiple products in response to Sonos’ patent infringement case.
After its victory in federal court on Friday, the company plans to undo the restrictions it implemented on speaker groups.
“In light of this legal decision we’re happy to share that we will be rolling back this change.
Sonos has said it plans to appeal Judge William Alsup’s ruling, which threw out an initial $32.5 million verdict, but apparently, Google is confident that the decision won’t be reversed in the near term.
As is usually the case with these things, the drawn-out legal battle between Sonos and Google has hurt customers the most.
It’s good to see these grouping features restored for owners of the affected products, but Google Assistant remains absent from Sonos’ most recent smart speakers.
