How do I change the time zone of my Sonos system?

My Sonos system is showing the time in GMT when I check on my desktop app so the alarms are all incorrect as I am based in Australia.  I can’t find any way of correcting this.

The update of today finally added timezone settings and even sommer/winter time adjustment. So it finally works without any workaround needed anymore. :)

I like to update that u manage to use another Mac OS app - UPnP Tool - to input index for Singapore (58).

 

now Sonos app in Mac showed correct time and tested the alarm set to local time. It works.

Hi Lads,

Could you give us more detailed information on how to update the time zone field (eg software to be used, menu, command etc...)? I’m on a Windows system.

UpnP Mate does not seem to allow to modify anything.

Thanks by advance!

I don’t have a Windows computer to try but https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/upnp-tool/id1602961500 works on iOS. It will discover your Sonos players. Select 1,then Alarmclock under services, then Set Time Zone pass a number under index. Use your alarm section on your Windows Sonos App to see which Time Zone that put you and narrow to the correct one. Some clues are in the posts above. 
 

It’s more difficult to describe than do!!

I have updated to the latest iOS app and there are no updates available for my system - Version: 16.2 (build 79154060). But I can’t find the timezone setting anywhere. Any advice? I’m currently an hour out.

You don’t see it in Settings>Manage>Date and Time?

Do you see alarms in Settings>Manage?

First step I would delete then reinstall the app.

Do you see alarms?

Are you running pihole or other ad blocking/privacy dns or similar?
