ALARMS: Add a "Snooze" Feature! :)
It would be great if a snooze button was added to the great alarms feature in Sonos!

Ha :P
Thanks

Exactly. I said nothing about hundreds of posts, I specifically pointed out the posts right above, on this very page. One even has a link to the feature!
The two posts immediately before yours were about the adding of the snooze function. Which is why nobody else has posted on this thread for five months.
Fine, I'll read it, but
1) these these threads have hundreds of comments, and I got the Sonos because using it was intuitive, not requiring research
2) I am using the crappy app and there is nothing in there that says SNOOZE.

Someone needs to read the posts right above. Snooze was released 5 months ago, but don't let that stop you from polluting more threads with yet another off-topic CR100 rant.
Now that you have hung all the people out to dry who made Sonos what it is by being early adopters and killing the cr100, please do the absolute minimum to make it usable as an alarm clock and add a snooze to the radio alarm.
Thanks
Thanks
Sweet! That only took FIVE YEARS! 😛

We just adding Snooze to the Alarm feature. Take a look here for details.

Tagrusendorf, if you're still monitoring this thread, I'm very interested in your solution. I'd like to setup a physical switch using a pi zero. Can you provide your code?

Hey,
Because I had the same feeling about the sonos alarms missing a snooze feature,
I have created an iOS iPhone/iPad app that can snooze your sonos alarms.
You can find it here: https://appsto.re/be/Xul7db.i
Screenshots can be found on the website: http://www.quicksonos.be/snooze/
Let me know what you think of it

KenS,

Sonos if it works let the world know please :-)

All the best :-)
I have not seen those before. They look very cool. Just ordered a 4 pack to try out. Thanks for the tip!
Perhaps this will do the job for snoozing your alarm on Sonos.

For anyone who's interested... The Sonos actually does have an embedded snooze function - it was available on the CR100 and CR200 controllers, but doesn't appear to be in the Android or iOS apps.
I built my own snooze button using a Raspberry Pi and some Python code using the Soco library. Now I've got a hardwired button sitting next to my bed that makes the Sonos alarm snooze for 10 minutes. I've been using it for 5 months now and it works great! My Sonos Play 3 is finally usable for an alarm!
If anyone's interested I'll post the code. It could still use some improvements in robustness.

just seen this on the page for the Sonos Connect. (http://www.sonos.com/en-gb/shop/connect)
"Front-panel play/pause controls
Set the alarm and wake up to your favourite music or Internet radio station in one room, or all over the house. Just hit snooze to get a few minutes more sleep. Fall asleep to soothing music with the sleep timer."
It implies there is a physical snooze button on the connect, can someone tell me how this works? This comment does not appear on the pages for any sonos speaker, only the connect, which seems odd, but maybe the same control can be used?

I've just bought my first Sonos (a Play:3) and was considering replacing my old alarm clock with a Play:1 but if there is no snooze function then it's not going to ba a very good alarm! Please add this feature, I can't believe people have been asking for this for 3 years without a response.
Having a snooze function in the mobile device app would be great. I don't have my Sonos on my bedstand, but do have my tablet, which I now use to pause Sonos. I have an alarm set for 10 minutes later - almost gives me a snooze function. Please add.
Sonos, you have to add snooze. This is stopping me buying another Play One for the bedroom. Add both a physical snooze via one of the buttons and function in the iPhone / Android app using a button, shaking the phone or turning it over.
Fair enough, but that's only useful if your Sonos device is on your bedside table. Of course, Sonos could easily implement both solutions, but the Widget would be more useful, generally speaking (since it could have transport/volume controls, as well as a snooze button), and for more Sonos users.
With the introduction of Widgets in iOS 8, it should be possible to implement a pull-down snooze button for the iPhone, that's accessible even when the phone's locked. This would be the perfect solution, but I don't think Sonos is listening.
I now have 4 Sonos players and LOVE them all. However, it is very frustrating that I cannot use the alarm feature because in order to silence the alarm I must get out of bed and hit the control on the player itself. Please add a "snooze" and "alarm off" button on the phone app.
My guess is that they are very busy with the core functions that they have been enhancing. Sonos is a leader in this area, but the competition is growing fast. I would love to see the enhanced alarm features we have been talking about, but I REALLY want to see Sonos stay on top.
I have found that my work around is pretty good with some drawbacks. I set several alarms 10 minutes apart, with escalating volumes. Then I can use the mute button as a snooze button. The major problem with this is if there is someone else sleeping who doesn't need to get up yet - but then using a snooze feature in that case is inconsiderate.
