Sonos Beam, night mode schedule function

It would be nice if we were able to schedule when the night mode and dialogue modes are on and off like when you set alarms.
We always use both modes in the evening and only dialogue during daytime. Now I have to turn night mode on and off every evening on my phone which is a little annoying to me. I would rather have them automatically turn on during specific hours and turn them off manually the few times I don't want to use them in the evening.

+1 for this.

I spent a lot of cash on a 5.1 Sonos setup and it's amazing! A little too amazing... So at night and early in the morning Night Mode is a must have if I want to keep my current living arrangements and wellbeing...

I think that having a schedule is very important. I would also settle for enabling night mode using my voice assistant, over infrared or through my Logitech Harmony hub and remote

I raised this with Sonos in 2016 and I'm still really wanting this feature on my Playbar, especially now I've added surround speakers to the setup.

Either a schedule for night mode, or something that automatically turns off night mode after x hours.

Please Sonos, you know it makes sense 😉

Please can we have an update to when this simple feature is going to be completed?

Unlikely. To date, Sonos has never shared a timeline, save the time they integrated Apple Music, and Google voice, the latter of which they missed the original date. That's likely why you won't find out when until it gets released, unless you care to join the Sonos Beta program, in which case you might find out slightly earlier than the rest of us.

What on earth is the purpose of this forum if not to see our requests realized! HOW HARD is this!? Night mode scheduling...not rocket science, let’s go Sonos! There’s been hundreds of requests for this and closed threads with only “I’ll forward this onto the team” what a blow off.

In that case, I’ll lodge a vote against night mode.

I watch and listen at different times of night and day. I don’t have a regular time that I’d want night mode set to cut in.

Whilst I can see benefits for a few users, I’d rather see development time and resource spent on more/better integration with Alexa and GA, for example, than on night mode.

Then don’t turn it on maybe!?

Yup, but as I said in my post I’d rather see the development time and resource spent elsewhere.

FWIW, for those that like to use Alexa, these commands are available and may help (a little), rather than reaching for the Sonos controller App... You just need to say these things before starting initial playback at night.

Alexa...
"Switch to Night Mode on [Room Name]" to turn on night mode via voice.
"Switch to Speech Enhancement mode on [Room Name]" to turn on speech enhancement via voice.
