My iPhone alarm stopped making sound after skipping

I set my alarm to skip once and now it doesn’t go off anymore, or well it goes off but it’s not making any noise. I have housemates that wake up at 5am so I keep videos on in the background while I sleep for white noise so I don’t wake up to the coffee grinder. I never had an issue before, but 2 weeks ago I skipped my alarm and it hasn’t gone off properly since. Now it just gives the banner and makes no noise. I am oversleeping every day and it’s not good.

Hello,

Make sure that the alarm is activated correctly:

How to set and manage alarms on your iPhone

Then:

Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and set the RINGTONE AND ALERTS slider to the desired volume for the alarms. 

Then, turn off "Change with Buttons." That will keep the alarm volume from changing when you make other volume changes for music etc.

Good luck.
