How do I restore the old alarm function on iPhone after updating?

Since updating iPhone the alarm function has moved to health as part of sleep schedule. When it was part of the clock it was easy to set and forget as I am retired and rarely use alarms and now it’s all complicated and had the nerve to fuss at me about my sleep schedule. Can I get the old alarm back? I hate this change. Why mess with something simple that worked well?

I've only been an iPhone user for a few weeks but I did this:


  1. Disable Sleep Health (a task in itself - Turn off alarms and delete sleep schedules in Health on iPhone – Apple Support (UK)
  2. Then add Alarms as normal
