I set my iPad alarm for 10.00 and 22.00 to remind me to take medication. After working OK for a few days, this morning the 10.00 alarm did not go off. When I checked at 10.06, I found that the alarm was still showing as ‘set’. I was not asleep so not a case of having slept through. What could have gone wrong?

- Swipe left over the alarm and tap Delete.
