Alarm volume TOO LOUD in iOS14

I installed iOS 14 on my iPhone 7 Plus, and now the alarm BLARES!! The phone's volume setting is low to moderate; the Sounds/Haptics is set to low/moderate. The alarm volume overrides those settings. In Alarms there is no way to set a volume.


When the alarm goes off, using the 'volume down' button snoozes the alarm instead of adjusting the volume.


Help!

Are you using the regular alarm? Or are you using the new Sleep function? If you're using the Sleep feature, open the Health app, go to Sleep>Your Schedule. Tap on your schedule(s) then tap "Edit". You'll be able to adjust the alarm volume there.


If you're using the regular Alarm, it does not have a separate volume control. I'd suggest you try a different alarm sound.

The change to button has been my fix for a long time since they introduced bedtime a few years ago but you have to manually keep changing your volume as it’s the same volume for ringtones! They actually turned it off on the last update the tosspots. We need a fix that doesn’t link the sound for the alarm with the ringer. People still need to hear phone calls! Come on apple, be like android 😂 I don’t want to have to attenuate a special tone (or two) in iTunes just to use for alarms at different times of the day surely.

I installed 14.2 yestersay and it happened to me this morning. I tried to figure it out and found out it happens after first alarm. I mean after closing alarm voice automatically goes up. I saw bar changing without me touching volume buttons, and then second alarm naturally become loud. Are we missing some sort of new setting? Something like when alarm goes off it thinks you woke up then gets the volume up so you can hear calls and massages rest of the day.
