Why have Sonos removed the sleep timer function in the new App . This makes my speaker useless to me. 
   Waiting for a response from Sonos but if nothing forthcoming I will have to ditch it and change brands as I use it all the time. 
 

if you’re having the same issues please email Sonos as well, the more that do should hopefully make them take some action !!

First time ever in my life posting to any community; this issue warrants a response.  Please please please heed the hundreds of pleas and restore this option immediately!

It seems that this is the reason SONOS released their terrible software early.

Either way, their image was impacted by a stupid decision. It will take a really long time for anyone to buy headphones from SONOS.

Just found a workaround… if you add your room as a device in Google Home app you can create an automation to mute the sound at a preset time…

I cant believe there is no more sleep timer. I cant get the stop playing to work on my IPhone.

Why remove a basic feature and not allow an easy work around?

I’m very disappointed in Sonos.

My wife and I use the sleep timer every night.

Dans une récente mise à jour de l'appli, Sonos a remis la fonction Alarme.

En attendant que la fonction Timer soit elle aussi remise, une astuce me permet de m'endormir à nouveau en musique.

Je programme une alarme pour dans 1 minute et je paramètre la durée de cette alarme.

Il n'y a plus qu'à attendre entre 1 et 59 secondes et ma musique douce se met en marche pendant la durée souhaitée! 😀 

Good night ! 😴

In a recent app update, Sonos brought back the Alarm function.

While waiting for the Timer function to also be reset, a trick allows me to fall asleep to music again.

I set an alarm for in 1 minute and set the duration of this alarm.

All you have to do is wait between 1 and 59 seconds and my soft music will play for the desired duration! 😀

Good night! 😴

PLEASE add the timer back into the app. I am stunned that such useful functionality has been removed. Why?!

Bonjour,

Hier mon app Sonos venait d’être mise à nouvelle version, j’utilise chaque nuit pour jouer musique pour dormir pendant une heure, mais hier je ne parviens pas le mettre le timer, 

c’est catastrophique pour moi, qui peut me dire comment ça se passe ?

Good morning,

Yesterday my Sonos app had just been updated to a new version, I use it every night to play music to sleep for an hour, but yesterday I couldn't set the timer,

It’s catastrophic for me, who can tell me how it’s going?
