    Me too, I took my phone to Apple today and they ran their diagnostic test and they said it was fine, but still having the same issue. I have multiple alarms and when I enable one on the other one disables and none of the alarms go off in the morning. I don't know what to do anymore, it's annoying

    Some basic trouble shooting for alarms. Delete all your alarms and add them back. Make sure that you're only using the installed alerts. Using your own music seems to be a problem for some people.

    I have tried deleting all alarm and reset all settings of my phone. Both don't work. The alarm sound that I use is default one.

    Look forward to have other solutions.

    The next steps are to restore from you back up and test. If that fails, restore as new and text.

     

    The alarm has been working fine for me since the update. I've been playing with Bedtime but am not completely sold.

    I have the problem that the alarm goes off but its only vibrating and flashing no sound. I might just download another alarm app until apple fixes the issue.

    I also discovered problems with the alarm when I totally missed waking up at a supposed time set in an alarm.

    I checked the alarm and tried changing the sound. There was none, just vibration.

    I checked volume, I tried other sounds. I checked other options, I even tried changing the new vibration to all possible values. No sound.

    I tried other alarms, but now, some of them don't even vibrate.

     

    Then, I did a hard reset.

    Luckily, the alarm (sound) came back.

    Not sure if it will work for all people, but I hope it will help at least some.

     

    **** bug that may not be forgivable for some people depending on they depend on their alarms to do.

    My girlfriend, this morning, failed to show on time at work, thanks to the new fantastic mute alarm feature of ios 10.

    Bugs like this are absolutely unacceptable, moreover they already occurred in the past.

    I'm the one who advised Apple to her and I didn't know how to reply when she told me a wake up alarm should never fail.

    I set three alarms for waking up on work days, one uses music, two are tones. They ALL dismissed with the touch of the home key! That's never happened before! Previously the home key didn't do anything while an alarm was sounding.  Pressing the volume key would snooze, but the alarms couldn't be dismissed without swiping and tapping "close".

     

    IF this is how Apple intended for the alarm to function with this new ios version, then I won't be able to use it.  It's FAR too easy to mistakingly dismiss the alarm and not wake up

    I agree. The wanted to get rid of the "slide to unlock" gesture everywhere, but it was very handy to avoid accidental clicks while waking up. A simple touch should always postpone it, never switch it off.

    Submit your feedback to Apple here:

    Meanwhile, the solution to this seems simple: use the on screen buttons. The snooze button is very large whereas the button to completely stop the alarm is quite small, small enough that I have trouble actually turning the alarm off some mornings.

    I've updated 10.0.2

     

    My alarm went "silent" (vibration) again this morning, causing me to be late for work,  despite it being "fixed" by hard resetting the last time (which was fortunately on a weekend). (Suspect it has something to do with headphones which I do plug in and out).

     

    I'm digging out my 10 year old physical alarm clock. No more trusting in iOS clock ever, not even if they Fix the Fxxkg Failed alarms.
