iPhone alarm is so loud

Hello I have a XS MAX. My alarm use to be fine but after upgrading my software to IOS 14 the alarm is so loud!. I mean it is blaring. I tried to adjust the sound in the sleep app, health app and I even turn down all of my sounds but my alarm still goes off like it’s on the highest setting. But when I look at the sound it’s on the lowest setting 🤷🏽‍♀️🤷🏽‍♀️. Will this be getting fixed? And I did reset my phone did all the troubleshooting.

Hey I had a similar problem on my Iphone after the last update. To fix it I went to Settings>Sounds and under the "Ringers and Alerts" section I started messing around with the Volume Slider and the "Change with Buttons" switch. What I found was that the "Change with Buttons" switch doesn't actually work, that is when you slide the switch to the off position the buttons still change the volume. Therefore, to get my volume down what I did was this:


  1. set "Change with Buttons" switch to ON.
  2. set the Volume Slider at the desired level.
  3. set "Change with Buttons" switch to Off.
  4. use the buttons to select desired volume.


hope this helps.
