iOS apps Clock (Alarm) - very irritating

Refer to this scenario:

I set alarm at 8am. Some one is calling me at 7.58am, we both in conversation using phone for few minutes. In between, when the time is exactly 8am, the alarm rang very loud while I am still in phone conversation.

This is a stupidx bug since first ever iOS, now is iOS 14 but none of you realized this and make a change. Why not just make it like reminder kind of a short beep instead of full alarm ringtone during phone conversation.

I am actively using the phone and especially during conversation the phone is closely touching my ear. The loud alarming sound is hurt!

iPhone 6s, iOS 14

You set the Alarm and it has nothing to do with your phone calls.

If you have a normal Alarm clock it will be the same.

Anyway, feedback to Apple here => https://www.apple.com/feedback

Thanks for replying.

I know it has nothing to do between Phone and Clock.

But as a 'Smart'phone it isn't smart.

You must be never got shocked during phone call when your alarm is ringing.

A really 'smart' smartphone should be able to reduce the irritant and avoid the user getting shock while in phone conversation. Just a few lines of coding can improve the user experience, I don't see the reason why they can't do it.

They must have been ignorance for long.

I have reported this issues many times via feedback but no changes until now iOS 14.4
