Sonos have neglected to include an alarm function in the app update as of 9th May 2024. very disappointed. Also a number of music services have been affected. I am sure this is an oversight - but with no communication from Sonos or announcement, it does not build confidence. Also - to cut off older systems and speakers is terribly bad form. Hopefully the Sonos event on the 14th will have everything resolved? Can we get some reassurance from Sonos customer service please?

I highly encourage everyone to hit them where it hurts - go and put in a 1 star app rating

Already done that, it’s shoddy at best

Hooray, just downloaded the update and the "new" app now has alarm control.

Look under the gear wheel at the top then Manage System.

OMG.  So my 6 year old son asked me last week to set an alarm for him at 6am to wake up so he can play games with his friends.  He normally doesn’t wake up until 7:30.  We stopped that!  Except we didn’t.  The alarm went off blaring this morning.  Didn’t wake him up, but it certainly woke me up.  And then I couldn’t find the damn alarm in the new app to delete it.  So now I guess we just wake up at 6am on Mondays and Tuesday and Wednesdays until they fix it?!

The Alarm feature was in the new Sonos App on initial release, but it got pulled - I guess an issue was perhaps found that needed addressing. I think it’s scheduled to return in a week, or so, though.🤞It’s probably going through testing as we type.

I’m presuming that @Noosta’s iPhone has not been updated, perhaps 🤔?
