From your Calendar App, tap the appointment to open the "Event Details" screen and, if needed, scroll down just a little to find "Alert." There is a two-day option there.

Unable to hear Calendar notifications in iPhone I’ve lately been missing notifications of calendar appointments, not because they’re not showing up on my phone but because I’m not hearing them, or noticing the banners. I do have notifications set up, including sound, but lately I need the equivalent of a phone that grabs me by the shoulders and shakes me until I say, “Got it!” I’m not sure what kind of help I’m asking for in this case. Maybe whether other flakes with a propensity to have their heads in a cloud have come up with hacks to get absolutely unignorable notifications, at least for their calendar appointments. Chagrined, but thanks in advance. [Re-Titled By Moderator]

Correct answer, but what is very odd is I replied when the question was first posted, with this answer. My answer isn't shown, yet I received a notification the thread had a new response?
