Setting Alarm with Latest App Update

Having updated the Sonos App I’ve spent an hour trying to find the Alarm settings. I swear it’s missing!  Please tell me where I can find them.

According to Sonos these options will be available at some in the future for iOS.

Looks like the Alarm issue is not mine alone. Do not understand how they messed this up so badly… who is accountable? While the S1 SONOS App automatically went to the New SONOS App Version, you may want to RE-download the SONOS S1 App and try to manage Alarms that way. Im a IOS user. 

Pathetic

I tried deleting and adding back Sonos app on my Pixel 8 (android), but Alarms still not there, although website says it’s in latest app version. Guess I just have to keep waiting for next app update.

I am so dissapointed! I wish you would spend less time pimping me with new products and get the products you've already shipped working better. I can't believe you left out the alarm and the timer why did you even bother to ship the update? Rollback!

This update is totally unacceptable, the fact that having installed it with all its shortcomings, it is not possible to re install the last S2 version is utterly ridiculous. Really disillusioned, annoyed and disappointed with SONOS!

Please sort this NOW! if not, this needs being publicised all over social media to warn anyone thinking of investing in SONOS equipment.

I shall start right now publishing on social media what a disaster SONOS is. 
Is SONOS Inc. run by a handful of incompetent teenagers unaware of page one of any business school first-year textbook: DON’T SEND UNTESTED ITEMS ON THE MARKET! 
This is utterly unbelievable. The top people should be fired immediately and without any golden handshakes - plus most of the IT department.
Unfortunately, I have invested in more than 10 SONOS units, What a bad investment! Now I have only 2 choices:
1) Stick to SONOS. Obviously a bad choice.
2) Sell the SONOS units for what they are worth: Almost nothing. Obviously a bad choice.

You may have guessed by now that I am sick and tired of *new and glorious* app versions that are bombing you back to square one. In that respect, SONOS Inc. is not alone.

WTF where is my alarms on the new app, I’m a shift worker & can’t change any alarm settings 🤬I’m being woken up in the middle of the night. I have to unplug all my Sonos equipment & use my phone. Absolutely not acceptable.

Check for updates, seems Sonos fixed alarms. Clearly, Sonos marketing wanted to launch the headphone product which needed the new release to work, but the app software was not ready, so CEO/marketing saw $ and decided to release an incomplete app…. IMO.

When greed is above all - the company starts going down the drain.

Greed for sure, but I think with the sales of Sonos boxes in a big slump (~240 000 fewer sales last year than the year before), this is more about survival.
