[All Platforms] Sleep Timer

I am a new user to Spotify from NZ and the first thing I miss having moved from iphone's built in music player is the sleep timer. I understand this feature stopped working in one of the recent versions of spotify App. If it is a compatibility issue partly related to iOS 5, may I suggest that you build a sleep timer into the App itself

 

Also, as suggest by one other Spotify user, Nyx, it would be even better if you could include an alarm featuer so we can all wake up to our favourite playlists within Spotify.

 

Thanks again for all the great work you guys are doing and we really hope you would consider this new idea.

 

Cheers

Update: The issue with sleep timer seems to be working in iOS 8.

Spotify, where are your cheery community reps to explain away this bug?

Seriously, at least honor the iOS "Stop Playing" timer action.

Sleep timer is and essential upgrade or update.  I need to cancel my spotify and move to TuneIn Radio or similar who have this feature when its time to drift off.  Please reconsider the timer as a priority!!!

For android, there's a third party app what's working as a sleeptimer for spotify. So just search on it in google play.

I stream my music with bluetooth, and it is working like a charm.

 

I cannot understand why it is not yet in the app itself. 

 

i hope this is usefull for some android users.

found a solution for iphone user.

 

try the app iSlumber

 

 https://itunes.apple.com/vg/app/islumber/id728293866?mt=8

 

it work on system volume of iphone, so at the end of times, spotify will automatically stop itself when volume reaches "mute" status.

 

Only max 1 hour of "sleep timer" but actually is the best solution i think

iSlumber only works when the device is on. If you push the power button, iSlumber do not continue the countdown. Its not a solution for me. So PLEASE, Spotify, PLEASE build in this feature!

Honestly how hard is it?  This was first suggested 2 years ago.
