Feature Request: Individual Room Grouping for Alarm Clocks

Current alarm clock settings:

- Select a "room"
- Select "Include grouped rooms"

 

I would appreciate it if:

- Multiple rooms could be selected individually
- A group could be selected that is already defined in the settings

 

Room groupings change throughout the day, so it's necessary to check each evening whether the desired rooms are grouped so that the alarm will sound there.

With these simple options as an extension, the desired rooms or group for the alarm can be defined precisely and individually.

 

Alarm clock task for the development team:

- Multiple room selection
- Select group option
* Additional task: Individual setting of the turn-on volume of the grouped speakers

Hi everyone 👋

Thanks for the replies, the pointers to similar topics, and for forwarding this to the review - great 👍!

The Sonos settings already include group settings for the speakers/zones. Integrating these groups as selection options in the alarm settings should be straightforward (you simply select a group instead of a speaker – that's all 🤓).

I've been using Sonos since the first products (ZP100 & CR100 😍), and ever since the alarm function was introduced, this has always been a small detail I've been missing, one that would be a huge benefit in daily use (synchronized music in the desired rooms/groups, no need for multiple alarms, no audio delay, fewer settings required, more automation, and more enjoyment 😎).

I would be very happy if the requested features were not only included in the development backlog but also implemented in the next sprint - “Can we fix it? YES, we can!” 💪.

The Sonos system/app is currently running better than it has in a long time - good job! Let's get the most out of the system - "let's do it" 🤗.
