Share presets across devices

It would be nice not to have to enter presets across every device in my home.

For example, our home has an open area kitchen, living room, and dining room (persistent group, anyone?). Each has its own WiiM device. There are times when we don't want music playing in each area, or when someone has played directly from an app into a zone different from the "owner" WiiM of a group, thus breaking it apart. Then, maybe that room rebuilds a group. Other times, a group might be created with the living room and a room on the other side of the living room. Bottom line is that we cannot just set 1 permanent group with the same "owner" of the group and only set up presets there. We need to be able to access the presets from *any device* in our home. You know, WiiM "Home" App and all.

Dwellers of this forum understand this issue, but users of my system don't. "Where did my presets go?" "They were just here..." "This system is too hard..." etc., etc.

And, I get it, some users may want per device presets. I get it. Just give the option for a WiiM home to be a "home"-wide app, please.

Do you mean presets, persistent groups or both? I believe WiiM have already said that they are looking to implement a means of sharing device presets (I.e. the dozen that appear on the favourites page) between one device and another, and if I recall from the beta, persistent multi-device groups will be visible across app instances.
 
Well, for now, I mean presets. Soon, I hope the same is true for persistent groups. Still waiting for that firmware, as I missed the beta.

I hadn't seen the specific mention of the sharing presets (or couldn't find it when I went looking), so I thought I'd throw in a specific thread / feature request on point.
