Is it just me, or is there no way to set alarms in the new app?

I always use my Sonos one as a alarm to get up in the morning, it’s the only reason I bought the thing. And I absolutely hate that they removed alarms in the new app. Please bring them back as soon as possible.

You can use a desktop controller to manage alarms.

I can’t believe it: the Sonos alarm clock is gone?

I trusted it and downloaded the new app, and here’s the unpleasant surprise.
What solution do you suggest?

Besides that, it seems like the timer that regulated the duration before falling asleep has disappeared too…

What a terrible decision!  Who at Sonos is authorizing the release of an “upgraded” app that actually reduces the usefulness of Sonos?  Fire that idiot and hire some intelligent software developers!

I tried, but couldn’t find the alarm option anywhere. I used the the web interface.

On my Mac there's an alarms setting at the bottom right of the screen. I had to use it last night because of this $%##@ app “upgrade"

Unbelievable decision. Amazon echo time.
