iPhone 15 alarm not working

i have two phones - a 14 for work and a 15 for personal. My morning alarm does not work on my 15, so I’ve now had to resort to using my 14 for my morning alarm. Time is set correctly, volume is turned ALL the way up and it still won’t go off. Apps are update. It’s got to be a bug in the new 15 operating system.

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 17

After I updated to iOS 17 my alarm stopped making noise too. I fixed it by disabling the standby feature. It installed default On. I noticed that when I picked up my phone in the morning (after using a normal alarm clock because I stopped replying on my iPhone) this odd screen showed up including a little red bell.


Try turning this off and report back!!

I was having the same problem as the OP and tried your suggestion … it worked, thank you very much! Since I’d not even signed up for a sleep schedule it was baffling how it even happened. Apple HAS to fix that… fortunately, found your reply right away and only went two days being late … feel sorry for anyone that has a strict schedule and may have gotten into trouble fir it at their jobs.

Mine still isn’t working either and I have tried everything in the book! I’m starting to get frustrated because I just went back to using iPhone after a few years after having Samsung Galaxy phones! I am very upset with Apple right now because with this iPhone 15, I have yet to hear my alarm clock go off! I am furious and this is so ridiculous!

I have the same issue with my iPhone 13 Pro ever since the iOS updated. At first I thought it was me and then I started testing different things. I have followed every single troubleshooting option. I have deleted and created new alarms. I have resorted it to Setting my Amazon Alexa app every day. This is absolutely ridiculous. Many of us used alarm clocks back in the day and now we rely on our cell phones because they are portable. Why should we have to download a third-party app? It makes me question Apple if they can’t fix something as simple as the alarm clock.

I am so sick of this. This phone is going to get me fired. I make sure the ringer volume is max. Silence mode off. The alarm has the most obnoxious noise possible. I set like 8 of them over the span of an hour, and still no alarm! It just shows the alarm screen but makes no noise. This is going to get me fired from my job and I’ve already missed a few morning college classes. I’m just about through with my phone I need to have my alarms. I’ve just now tried removing the standby screen as per request of another user in this thread.

After purchasing a very expensive phone we should not have to become an IT professional overnight to turn off settings/turn setings back on/download free alarms that have so many pop up adds you cant set the alarm/ or purchase from the Apple store another alarm simply because of an Apple malfunction. Absurd and very frustrating as they could have or should have had a fix by now!!

Same problem here, ringer was on, volume was on, alarm was set for 7:30. I wake up confused as to why it’s so sunny and I check my phone to see my alarm hadn’t even gone off and it’s 8:30. Apple has had so many small problems since they added their new wallpaper editor but this one is just completely unacceptable. What kind of smart phone (let alone the most expensive one) doesn’t have a functional alarm system??
