[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.

Does anyone at Spotify read these comments? If so they certainly do not respond

Not sure the point of the community here if Spotify doesn't join the discussion. What is sleep time status for desktop?!?

I hope this happens. I've been searching anywhere and everywhere for a music alarm clock, and spotify would be perfect. Please please please make this guys. Be the hero we need.

Just made the exact same request through twitter and got directed to this thread. I'd love to have something like this and I can finally throw out the good(?) old alarm clock! 😉 Got my full support on this one!

There is an app coming very soon for Android and iPhone that will have the functionality this thread wants (and a lot more).
Exciting times ahead for myself (the developer) and I can't wait to share it with you all.


If any of you would like to participate in the closed beta phase, please contact me via private message (click my name and then select "send private message" on the top right hand side).

Please include an email address to allow me to send the beta invitation.

 

No schedule for the beta testing yet but it will be communicated as soon as it is ready.

 

If any Spotify developers see this message, please do contact me as there are some (very mutually beneficial!) aspects I would love to discuss.

I have submitted an inquiry via the partner portal but I understand that may be like finding a needle in a haystack with the volume of inquiries you must receive!

 

 

Regards,

VK

I'm hoping for this sleep timer(On Android). I fall asleep to a spotify playlist I have. So once I'm asleep spotify continues to play all night. Please I hope it happens soon. Thanks!

Pandora already has this functionality but I would rather be using spotify if possible as I'm already paying for thepremium service. Not sure if apple music will have this feature but if it does then I'll be moving to apple.
