My snooze is snoozing itself!

Apparently I have the opposite problem from many iPhone users. My iPhone alarm is snoozing itself? In the morning it goes off at the correct time but not 5 seconds later it goes to snooze-with the timer just like I pressed it. I have 3 alarms in the morning and all three will do it, I can come back to the phone to find the three snoozes going as well as the snoozes snoozes. So if I don’t cancel the snooze, at the end Of the 9 minutes it will do it again. Short ring then snooze, all without my help.


I have been late more than once. I have tried searching, but haven’t found any answers. Maybe I’m not looking in the right area?


If anyone knows how to fix it please let me know.


thanks

Hello Fancypig,


Thanks for reaching out to us in Apple Support Communities about your alarms auto going to snooze mode, we're happy to help by looking into this more! 


To help isolate this issue some more, let's have you delete all your alarms and then add a single alarm and test to see if you experience the same issue.


Set an alarm on iPhone


Let us know how that goes.


Best Regards

I turned off the snooze alarm and I don’t seem to be having this problem anymore. Also I did notice if my phone isn’t sitting on a sturdy flat surface it will go straight to snooze. I had the phone on my bed and once in my purse and the alarm didn’t go off. Not sure if this will help you…..Hopefully apple can fix this soon

Just a guess but think this is being caused by using multiple alarms which are overlapping each other if got set around the same time as a 'back up' to make sure you get up!


I use the iphone one, and an App one.

So because the App one is coming on a few minutes after the iphone one, its like it is overriding the apple one,

and then when that one is turn off, it then allows the iphone on to ring (which has defaulted to snooze) and it comes on 'randomly' about 5 or 10mins after I have got up.
