Alarm malfunctioning

my alarm clock works however, recently it goes from loud to soft rapidly and the following alarms will sound muffled. I've checked my sound and haptics and its set to 75% no changes in the bar when rang and my attention aware is off but the sound is soft as if i placed my ear to my phone. Is there a way i can make it back to normal??

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Try this:


  1. Edit the alarm
  2. Tap Sound
  3. Tap a sound type (it can be the same as the one you currently have)
  4. It will play the alarm as you should hear it
  5. If the sound level level is not sufficient, press the Sound Up button on your phone and repeat #3 until you are satisfied.
