      Yes, this would be great! Maybe we could just define a time, at which a predefined level is reached? So let's say you have your alarm level set to 40%. Now you just need to define, when this "full alarm level" is reached. Like 2 mins or so.

        I use a feature like this on my phone and it works great. Would love to see it on the Sonos system.

        I can't believe this isn't already a feature. I guess everything gets improved over time.

          Yes please. Would be even better if you could add a snooze/kill function per speaker. So kill the sound in bedroom, but have it gradualy increase in bathroom and kitchen.

          Yes yes yes and also the same for sleep. But with more little steps. Consider that lowest volume that can be set from the android application on sleep the song is truncated without any fading. This means that volume steps should be smaller than they are today, I hate when a song is abruptly stopped. Think about in a silence room it is annoying.

            Sonos, try to set minimum level from Android app and then set sleep timer in complete silent environment. When sleep happens there is no graceful fade out. Music is truncated. This means we need a bigger number of steps to fade out music. Thank you

            The idea of a rising rate alarm volume would be great. Set start volume and final volume and the time for the rise to happen. sleep could just be the opposite.

            Would be great!!! Just define start time, end time, fade in or fade out and the start or end volume. Then steps go divided by time... Volume should increase without hearable steps...!

              If Sonos did this, I could get rid of my alarm clock. I'd love that!
