[All Platforms] Sleep Timer

[SurejNZ]

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.

Hello all,

fyi..I did post, requesting and wanted to let you know that I found a wok around for IOS users...do

the following on your IOS device:

Slide up the bottom of your screen to expose  " Apple Timer" 

scroll down on the many "sounds" until you see "Stop Music"

start your timer and after your selected hours/min, 

once you set it, just click start on the apple timer either before or after running Spotify and it will stop playing music after the timer runs out.

hope this helps as we await Spotify to add this no brainer option😜😜😜

I tweeted Spotify about this, and they sent me here to support the idea.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who needs this. RIght now I have to use TuneIn because they have a sleep timer on iOS, but I'd prefer Spotify.

I was gonna suggest this feature, but I'm glad people already want it.

Please add this function to the Mac OSX app.

I agree about the sleep timer issue. Pandora has it.

I agree about the sleep timer issue. Pandora has it so it can be done. That is one feature of Pandora I miss.

I cancelled my Spotify for this reason. Buh-bye.
