Hi all,

With the latest update, alarms are now available in the Sonos app. You’ll need the latest version of the Sonos app and speaker firmware to have them show, and steps are posted in the Sonos App Redesign AMA, which are:

  1. Update your app to:
    1. iOS: 80.00.08 - available now in the App Store
    2. Android: 80.00.05 - available now in the Play Store
  2. Update your firmware to 79.0-52294 - available now via the Sonos App:
    1. Tap the settings gear in the top right
    2. Select “Manage” next to your system name
    3. Select System Updates
    4. Select Check for Updates
  3. Launch the Sonos app twice in order to guarantee we fetch the latest feature flags:
    1. Start the Sonos app
    2. Force quit the app
    3. Start the Sonos app again

Once you’ve performed the above, you’ll find alarms in the Sonos app under System Settings (⚙) → Manage → Alarms.

You can view the current roadmap on our article for Future Feature Updates in the New Sonos App and also in the Release Notes for Sonos software updates.

As asked by Talkien when will it be possible to use alarms without having to login?  It is totally impractical for anyone wanting to set, or alter, an alarm to have to log in.

Further, you shouldn't really have to login to set local music servers.

Forcing people to log in to undertake basic functions just so SONOS can acquire more data about their customers is unacceptable.  It also means what should be a basic local function becomes unavailable should one loose connection with the internet.

 

So are there any plans to make alarms local again??
