Hi, i have a Sonos Roam 2 and sometimes the Sonos Roam 2 is out of reach. So if the speaker powers off i have to go reach for it and turn it on, so i asked Sonos to add a power on/off setting from the app. Does anyone else think this would be useful? It is annoying when the speaker is out of reach and you either have to power it on or off. Therefore i think this would be very useful.

The functionality to a degree already exists. Simply disable the Battery Saver toggle then the Roam 2 will wake up from sleep mode when the app is opened. After 30mins of being idle it will re-enter sleep mode.

If the speaker is fully powered down then no app power on option is going to work anyway.
