Hello,

At time of writing, the new Sonos app has been updated and a sleep timer has been re-introduced.

It has been encouraging to see the Audible integration support chapter navigation. I’m hopeful that other integrations where chapter navigation makes sense (e.g. PocketCasts handling podcasts that are support chapter navigation).

The sleep options currently extend to - 15 min, 30 min, 45 min, 1 hour and 2 hours. 
Additional options for Custom (where the user can choose any number of minutes) and End of Chapter (which would only be available if an audiobook/podcast is playing) would be highly appreciated.

I recognise have requested custom sleep timers before (6 years ago) but hope the statute of limitations on asking the same question a second time has passed. If anyone from Sonos reviews this and would be willing to reply I would be grateful to know.

  • are these additional options for sleep timers in your roadmap for your new app?
  • are there any plans to add chapter navigation to the podcast integrations?

For myself, and potentially others, from whom their main use case for the Sonos ecosystem is listening to spoken word, these would be significant quality of life enhancements to the listening within the Sonos app experience.

Thank you for your consideration.
