Predefined group feature request

Hi... I would love to have a feature where I can predefine a group of players and be able to play to this group... I have a two story house with 11individual players, and it would be perfect to have a predefined group for first floor and second floor. It would make it so much easier compared to the current where I have to choose between the individual players to make my group...

Hopefully some others out there also find this feature request important so it will be implemented some day...

Best regards to you all

    Welcome to the community, bourskov83. I can definitely see the benefit of this, particularly on larger systems. I'd be happy to forward this as a feature request. Please let me know if you need anything else.

      Edward, I think you know this already, but it would be particularly helpful if the predefined group name can be used with Alexa voice commands.

        That's definitely another request we can pass on melvimbe. If a feature like this were to be integrated though, Alexa would definitely be a factor to take into account.

          This feature is the highest on my list of missing features from SONOS. As a Philips Hue user, where the feature is present, I find the fact that SONOS hasn't included it surprising. Please include it in an upcoming release to make SONOS a world-class perfect application. Thanks
