Does the sleep timer work if there's an ipod nano in the dock? Or does it have to have an ipod touch or iphone to use the app to sleep? Thanks

It can be used with or without any compatible Apple device... You can set the alarms directly or use the app when the iPhone is in the dock

If you leave the speaker dock on, it will play the alarm. We recommend using our alarm app, "Dreamer Alarm Clock", which is available on Google Play. It integrates completely with our other product, the Dreamer Alarm Dock, but will also work with the Speaker Dock.

Dear Mozzer,The auto sleep function is engaged if no music has been sent to the Nova for 5 minutes. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance!Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

Hello, I'm an owner of this device. The settings and functions of the 4gb Phillips player are very basic and it does not, I believe, have a sleep timer or even a clock funcion. For basic music playing needs I've been happy with it altogether. Hope this was helpful

I know this is a common concern but I just got this speaker and it CAN charge an ipod touch 2nd generation...if you have the time to deal with it.I tried playing around with it and figured out that if you have the speaker turned on (with the ipod turned on (or in sleep mode) and inserted on the dock) and unplug and replug the speaker, it begins charging each time. The speaker MUST be turned on when you unplug it or else it doesn't work. The ipod doesn't have to be on the dock when its unplugged but it has to be on the dock once you plug it in for this to work. This is the only way I can get it to charge 100% of the time. Tedious but it works. Let me know if this helps. Good luck everyone!

The speaker dock will work as an alarm if you use it with the Hale Dreamer Alarm Clock app (available on Google Play), but I'd recommend the Hale Dreamer Alarm Dock. It is a powerful 10w speaker with a snooze bar (and many more features).

I downloaded an app from the App Store to put it to sleep off on wake. Hope that helps

Yep. I use that feature every night. Once you set the sleep timer though, don't touch other buttons. If you set it and then mess with volume or whatever, the alarm might go off because the other buttons seem to change the sleep timer over to an alarm instead. Just hit play and then press the alarm button twice and it will be a 30 min sleep timer. Not truly sure if it's random but it does play different songs every night. It just might be in order, not random.

Fussy About Clock Radios,If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay.iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped.Godspeed!~SWWPD

I wondered the same thing when I bought it. I was disappointed to find that it does not put the iPad in sleep mode. But other models similar to it do.

Yes, this is possible. I found that with the clock on the the very lowest setting, I could sleep without disturbance. Many of the iHome alarm clocks (with the iPhone docking stations) allow you to completely darken the clock so it is not seen at night. Additionally, the alarm notification can be set to very quiet beeps - I have super hypersensitivity and hyper vigilance to things like that. Currently, I'm back using my iHome, but I found the Philips useful, while I was using it, when I was working. (Currently disabled.) This IS large, though... almost a foot tall, large diameter base.

I have not used the app sleep-lite, BUT I can tell you that I love the Nomad Sound Sleep Machine. The sounds it makes block out everything else and I sleep great.

Okay, after nearly a month of waiting for my Zune HD to be delivered.. I can finally personally verify that the Zune HD works with this dock. As the previous update from iHome states, the snooze function is not functional however this dock charges, plays, wakes to and sleeps to the HD. I can finally consider purchasing the remote for the dock as I will have it for the next couple of years before a new Zune is released. :)

wish I knew for sure so I could help you... my son puts his Ipod in the Luna Clock and does use the XtremeMac app for clock syncing purposes. But, for example, when he plays music from the Ipod, it certainly does play through the Luna Clock... so do you think the Iphone Alarms would play through the speakers the same way? I would think, but i don't know for sure. Good luck

I do not see a sleep timer on this radio, the remote, or the instructions so I am going to have to say no. You could get a device that plugs into an outlet that turns it off at a certain time.
