Iphone SE quiet alarms
My iPhone keeps silencing my alarms making me wake up late and miss class.
I don't have the attention-aware option because my phone is too old and I've already turned off the Change with Buttons setting.
iPhone SE, iOS 17
If the alarm volume is too low or quiet
Do Not Disturb, the Ring/Silent switch, and Silent mode don't affect the alarm sound. If you use the Ring/Silent switch or Action button to turn on Silent mode or turn on Do Not Disturb, the alarm still sounds.
If you have an alarm that doesn't sound or is too quiet, or if your iPhone only vibrates, check the following:
- Set the volume on your iPhone. If your alarm volume is too low or too loud, press the volume up or volume down button to adjust it. You can also go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and drag the slider under Ringtone and Alert Volume.
- If your alarm only vibrates, make sure that your alarm sound isn't set to None. Open the Clock app, tap the Alarms tab, then tap Edit. Tap the alarm, then tap Sound and choose a Sound.
- If you connect headphones to your iPhone, the alarm plays at a set volume through the built-in speakers on your iPhone as well as wired and wireless headphones.
- When you use StandBy, haptics for your alarms are disabled. To make sure that your alarm sound isn't set to None: open the Clock app, tap the Alarms tab, then tap Edit. Tap the alarm, then tap Sound and choose a Sound.
Manually adjusting the time on your iPhone in Settings to change app behavior, like game timers, isn't recommended and can affect alarms.
