Q: Alarm Clock for IOS 10

When I tried to set alarms by swiping the green button (to turn on the alarm) -- the toggle didn't stay and the alarm turned off. I can't turn my alarms on or off - so I had to download a different alarm app to make sure I had an alarm set for work.

 

Also, the bar at the top that has the connection, wifi icon, battery life icon etc flashes when I try to use the alarm clock on the iPhone.

 

how do i fix this?

iPhone 6, iOS 10

    Did you already try to force restart the phone by holding the sleep an home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data, but this can cure some glitches after installing new software or apps.

    Any restrictions set up in Settings/General/Restrictions?

    Same thing happpening to my watch alarms turn off and I can't turn them back on.  Spent several hours on with apple support.  They said it was the first they heard of it.  Unpaired and paired watch.  Added back all alarms some work, most don't.  Very frustrating.  I have a case number and they are working on it.

     

    What alarm app are you using as a replacement?

    I have the same issue! Also after trying to turn alarms on/off, or create new ones, the whole phone crashes showing a black screen with the spinning gear. This only lasts for a few seconds, and then the phone reloads on the Lock Screen. Luckily all the alarms I had set before the update are still active and do go off, but I cannot turn them off or edit them.

    the whole alarm changes are a mess in general. What happened to swiping to turn the alarm off. We now have to press a tiny spot which by the time you've found it in the morning you've woken up the whole house.
