I have updated to the new app. Like the new layout, but how do I access, set and remove alarms on my system, now? 

I am so upset. I use the alarm feature everyday. 

Bring it back or I'll start throwing stuff out.....

No alarm on Sonos iOS? Speaker is worthless now. Can I have my $500 back so I can get a different setup?

Seriously. I actually have an old Bose speaker, I think it might be worth checking out other options at this rate.

I’ve heard (perhaps incorrectly) that existing alarm settings can be altered via web sign in but have looked and can’t find them anywhere - any advice welcome ??

How stupid am I , on seeing that there was an update to the app and with the anticipation that improvements were coming I downloaded it to my phone and iPad . WHAT A MISTAKE . 90% of the uses I have for the app is to change my alarm settings nearly every else is done via voice control . Without a laptop or desktop computer in the house it looks like I’ve been completely shafted by Sonos . 
 

SONOS you need to ether get this fixed right away or give us the option to return to the old version , at least that works .

so, the temp fix is to download the Sonos app to your pc (from Sonos web site) and within you’ll have the capabilities to amend the alarm settings - done.

Meantime I’m told the boffins who messed up in the 1st place are working on fixing asap - but not holding my breath :-)

What planet are you people on in the Sonos development office? Didn’t consider that leaving out a much used function such as alarms would be a backward step? Please fix with an immediate update.  I will not update the app until this has been released.

I already called sales and return’s department to investigate. Unfortunately, my speakers are too old to get very much so now I just have useless speakers taking up critical space. I think I’ll move them and put my Bose there instead.

Just updated my ios app on return from vacation and now I cannot access sleep timers or alarms (I know, you still can from Windows, but why would I want to trek to the desktop to set an alarm before I go to sleep, or set a sleep timer when I’m just ready to do so?).  Are Sonos management looking to put people off buying their products?

Argh, I wish I could’ve warned you!!! Yes, and the Windows thing… RIGHT? I am no longer using the app. I just control the Sonos sound through my Spotify app. Unfortunately, no alarm unless through my phone via Spotify.

I echo the same frustrations as everyone. We use the alarms everyday. Interesting the still work though we cannot adjust them any longer. 

Please Sonos Fix This!
