Alarms can be created, switched on and off - but once created they cannot be deleted?
Alarms can be deleted. Select the alarm you want to delete, scroll to the bottom and select Delete Alarm.
Saving the queue and preventing automatic queue deletion are crucial features that matter greatly, and their absence has been frustrating, especially since other queue-related functions have returned while this one remains missing. The ability to save the queue has always stood out as a favorite and essential part of the experience, so it is disappointing that there’s no sign of its return.
It does appear, based on what has been shared in forum threads and Reddit discussions, that the deletion of the queue whenever a radio station is played is considered normal behavior by Sonos and not actually a bug (based on my recollection, which I would be happy if it is incorrect). While this may reflect the company’s intended design, it is certainly hoped that feedback from users will lead to reconsideration and restoration of both queue persistence and saving capabilities in future updates.

Thanks - I stand corrected. I’d not scrolled down far enough to see the delete option.
This details how you can add individual songs that you have searched for to a playlist. However, if you have created a queue of tracks there is no way (in the App) of saving the queue as a new playlist.

To be clear when you play a radio station is does not ‘delete’ the queue. The queue is still there, but there is no way to get back to it from the Sonos App. If you use the Windows App then the queue remains visible and it can be re-started. This was also always possible in the IOS App before the May 24 update - when the radio was playing there was a button in the bottom left of the screen that would take you back to the queue.
In my usage of the Sonos iOS app, I use the term ‘delete’ to describe the situation as the queue is functionally inaccessible from my chosen app.
