Phantom alarm

iPhone 12 max Pro. 128G. I have an alarm that goes off at 6:30am EVERY day. It makes no sound, but blinks the flash light. Problem is; I don’t have an alarm set for 6:30 everyday. I don’t have a 6:30 (am or pm) set for ANY day. There’s nothing to check in settings >sound, alarm volume or anything, Because I’ve set no alarm for 6:30, and the register of my alarms doesn’t show one set at 6:30(am or pm). If I look at list of alarms at 6:29am; not there. If I look at 6:31after it goes off (or rather blinks); not there. I do have most notifications(calls, txts calendar alerts, etc.. Set to light blink). Are there any other apps, programs, devices, that can access my alarms? I do have an IPad that’s used daily, an older iPad that is rarely ever turned on and anniPhone 7s(I think?). That old phone is occasionally in use as a dedicated air play device, if that helps to know. Other than that, I use alarms all the time without issue. But I won’t trust it for purposes of waking up, or not being late.

Thanks all,

Cheers

Do you have any third party Alarm App installed which is interfering with the default Alarm app?
Do you have BedTime alarm set?
Was there any Alarm symbol on status bar on top (Watch the 1st GIF below)
Check your Reminders Today Notifications (Watch the 2nd GIF Below)

I do not know if this reply is to myself or to sravanKrA. If the latter, then thanks for the response. 1. I do not use a third party alarm. 2. I’ve never set up the Bed Time settings. 3. This one is interesting. I have not seen the little alarm icon in a while. I do not remember how long it’s been gone. I would guess at least 10-12 months of no icon; and I use 3-8 alarms per day, every day. 4. Also interesting; my progression of screens is different than the one in your Gif, I did however have Today Notification set to “on” with a preset time of 9:00am. Perhaps i set it up that way originally? I do like using reminders app, but can quickly fall deep down the rabbit hole of settings within reminders. I left that setting on should i turn off? Also, I’m fairly certain that the banner on my Lock Screen, as I go to turn the phantom alarm off says.”clock 6:30”, but I’m not 100% certain (maybe 90%). Thanks for the help
