Room Grouping designations part of an alarm...?

I'd like to see room groups part of the alarm setting process so my morning alarm plays my favorite radio station in the assigned rooms. In the evening I'll change room assignment and if I forget to set it back the next morning's alarm will not be how I like it. Thanks, I love my Sonos!

      Is there a Sonos rep around who'd like to comment on this feature request?

        Plus 1 on this. As a Sonos user for nearly 5 years now I really can't believe this hasn't been implemented

          So strange its the most basic function!  Then i would like to adjust the volume individually between grouped rooms during the wake up but that must be nearly impossible to implement 🙂

            I think BOSE already has this feature. Why not SONOS? - falling behind on the basics, messing about with fancy stuff less useful.

              Perhaps they have a different vision of where their product exists than BOSE does?

              I don't know, but I would prefer that Sonos continues to be their own company, and not just blindly copy something other companies do. If it works within their product vision, great. If not, fine. I don't like clones.

              Please add room or zone grouping

              It's a basic feature that would have multiple uses.

              First it will help with setting alarms to play on specific speakers without having to worry that the speakers are already grouped.

              Second, it will make other activities quicker. I would set up an outside group, first floor, second floor and likely kids rooms.

              If I can ask for more then it would be HomeKit integration and a new sound bar with HDMI input

              Thanks.

                Hi,

                A lot of people has for a long time complained about grouping speakers in the alarm feature.
                Why are Sonos not doing anything? Is it not possible?
                I have 4 speakers and I love Sonos but the Alarm feature really sucks. :@
                You can manually group your speakers but if you change it doing the day or your Wifi is reset the grouping is gone and you need to regroup the speakers before the Alarm can handle the group.

                Come on Sonos! Please fix it or inform why it can’t be fixed.

                BR,

                  Please add room grouping for alarms!! Big Plus 1 from me.

                  Have to admit I just assumed you could do it until I tried.

                  Plus one on this. Do the developers even read these threads? Why hasn't this been done yet!
