Running 80.01.11

To have a 6.00am Alarm work on time I need to set it for 8.30pm. I’m in South Australia which is +9.30 UTC hence the adjustment I needed to make. Manual shows Local Time setting option but that option doesn’t appear in my settings list. Alarm setting shouldn’t be a math test! Is anyone else have this problem?

Now fixed in the latest firmware update 80.04.04. Settings Menu now has Date and Time function.

Only took 2 months!

Yes I was pleased to see this morning that an app upgrade has added alarms back in. However mine fired in GMT not BST. I am trying to work out if I can set daylight saving.

A couple of questions if I could please. Assume BST is your summertime designation? Was your GMT correct but only not adjusted for Summertime? What app version are you on? And lastly in your Settings>Manage do you have a settings option for Date & Time?

Unfortunately, I have the same problem. My Sonos Alarm is exactly 2 hours off, which is exactly the difference to my current timezone (GMT +2). Unfortunately, the setting: Date & Time isn’t available currently in the app. I hope that they can fix it rapidly.

No fix here either. Contacted Sonos Support in Australia and the operative said it will be fixed in the mid June app update. Notwithstanding his response I got the feeling that he wasn’t aware of it and just punted that it would be fixed in the “silver bullet” next update. My Settings menu still has no Date and Time function. I’m on the latest firmware for app and speakers. There are some other odd occurrences with my Alarms, like Radio stations not playing and substituted with the Sonos Chime. I’m hanging in, just!

Hi

Just updated to 80.02.04. Some awaited fix’s included which has importantly improved usability in a number of areas. Sleep timer is back, hooray! However Date and Time function in Settings Menu still missing so I still have to set Alarms +9.5 hours adjustment to have them operate on time. It would seem this is not a universal problem as otherwise community feedback would be off the scale. Australian support is approachable but not helpful on this question. Help needed. Have any thread contributors contacted their local support on this issue? What was the response?

Same issue here. Alarm is off 4 hours (as in I have to set the time I want +4).
