Question

Move Alarm working if box is turned off?

Hey, 

 

I'm currently on vacation and forgot to disable the alarm. But there are two types of "power on" standby and off. Is the Alarm working when I turn the Sonos Move Box completely off?

 

Thanks

    No. It should, I think, in standby, but off is off. You should test!

    Related questions. I was travelling with my Move. Using it in Bluetooth mode. The alarm I’d set at home woke me up at my normal time, 6am. BTW, I’m on vacation, so I had no intention of getting up that early. It is comforting to know that, at home, if my wifi is down momentarily, the Move alarm ought to still trigger. Am I correct in that assessment, that the Move alarm will trigger in the absence of wifi with the Sonos chime? Yes, I can test it, but better than that, is that the way Sonos Move was designed?

    However, there seems to be no way to disable the alarm unless I am at home, on my home Sonos system. Is there a workaround? Obviously, the simple way is to turn the Move off entirely (press/hold power button). But it seems the alarm will continue until I get back home (2 weeks) unless I remember to turn off the Move each evening.
