Q: I can only set one alert in icalendar

Whenever I try to set alerts for icalendar I cannot. For example, I wouls like to be alerted a day before for the first and then an hour before for the second. It will flip flop them all of the time or keep both alerts for the same time. So frustratin. If anyone knows how to fix this please let me kno. It has happened for as long as I can remember. No new updates. Restarting phone and app doesn't help.

iPhone 5s, iOS 9.1

It seems odd to me that the battery color is yellow instead of green. Why is this? Has your iPhone ever been hacked or jailbroken?

That, my friend, is what happens when you turn on Low Power Mode.

By the way, running iOS 9.1 with my iPhone 6S, I can set two alerts without an issue. I cannot comment about the "flipping" as I have seen that as well. But I do get to keep two distinct alert times.

I have seen other reports of this happening, but do not know the cause. Like sberman, I have not witnessed this on my device, however I rarely use two alerts. I tested this prior to replying here, and it worked correctly for me as well.
