I have updated to the new app. Like the new layout, but how do I access, set and remove alarms on my system, now?

    What a terrible omission! How did all the Beta testing miss this? An absolute essential.

      Agree: Dear Sonos, please put the alarm function back in iOS app ASAP. Used very often by myself and family. Thanks.

        Will previously set alarms work or are they cancelled? Wanted to change my 6.20 AM alarm tomorrow as it is a holiday… is the only way to be sure the alarm doesn’t go off to unplug the speaker?!! 😳

            Been desperate for an updated app but now got one without the most basic of features and something I used everyday. Clutching defeat from the jaws of victory again, Sonos. Well done you.

              Dear Sonos team, please put the alarm function back in iOS app. My family and I use it daily otherwise your speakers are pretty useless for us and they’ll be used as paper weights and we certainly won’t be buying anymore. It’s one of the basic things that makes this sound system better than the rest!

                Actually the official statement posted on some of the other threads is to use the Windows or Mac OS desktop app. It is the only remaining app to not have been updated. Also keep your devices from updating to the new app until they roll back in the removed features.

                Thank you, I appreciate your input, floresep.

                MY MIND IS BLOWN THAT THE ALARM FEATURE WAS OVERLOOKED OR PURPOSEFULLY OMITTED. I WAS HOPING IT WAS JUST A POOR UX DECISION AFTER 10 MINUTES OF TWO DIFFERENT PEOPLE LOOKING FOR IT.

                SONOS TEAM, PLEASE BRING IT BACK.

                  Major pissed off. First I could not find the sonos app. Offcourse it got updated. Looks nice. Then i Spent the last 2 hours trying to find my alarms. Can someone tell me how to get to it in the android app. Also when you play music you can not add to queue. Wtf is all that about. Why leave these out. I rely heavily on my somos alarms.

                    Beyond belief!  Like an idiot, I updated this morning when prompted. How the hell do I make it to tomorrow’s 7:30 am meeting?
