Same problem. Only with scheduled alarms. No solution yet.

Same problem...

Temporary fix...

If I set a non-repeating alarm it works.
If I set the alarm to repeat 'Workdays' then it goes off an hour too late.
If I set the alarm to go of 'Every Day' then it works fine.

So this is a temporary fix for your daily work alarm, set it to 'Every Day' (remembering to set the alarm to 'OFF' on Friday night and back onto 'ON' on Sunday morning if you don't want to be woken on your weekend!).

Same problem in France. For the moment I set the weekdays alarms one hour early
😟

Same problem in Ireland. Weekday alarm goes off an hour late! Bad args apple

Adding my voice !

The most frustrating point is the fact it is clearly a bug in IOS since I have my iPhone 3GS for a couple of years now and never had the issue before !

Like all others, non recurrent alarms work like a charm but since they have to be repeated, they are one hour late !

I've been working for Apple for ten years in the past and I can't believe there is no answer so far to this bug.

Guys, make an effort and solve this !
I don't want to wait till spring to get my alarms back to normal.

It is silly, very frustrating and gives a very poor image of Apple.

Well guys, you will not believe it but the alarm is working properly again. Tested it this morning (living in Europe) and it goes off on the time set. And not any more one hour earlier. I guess Apple have build in a check in the Alarm procedure that DST will effect from today....gives Apple a very hard look

Hi buddy,

Thx for your input, I've just gave a try and it's kind of weird but all is back to normal...

Just wondering what the problem was and how they solved it without updating the OS on the iPhones...

It isn't solved actually, but the bug will not occur for now. They did program, I guess, in the alarm routine that the DST was today, instead of how they should have program it with the phone time itself. And that was that DST will depend on your time zone. So New Zealand/Australia last month, Europe last week and US this weekend. But obviously with the alarm routine they just said...oh well DST will only be today for whole the world. So very dirty programming.

Oh, I get it !

So there is really a world outside of this US ?

Interesting, isn't it ? 😉

Hello iPhone developer,

Multiple scheduled Alarm won't went off in iPhone OS 4.1

Worked!

Thanks!

Living in Arizona, we do not change times during the year. However, I noticed that my iPhone had in fact dropped back one hour. When I got into "settings", I found that the time zone region had changed to 'Cupertino' - home of Apple's mother ship! (Draw your own conclusions and conspiracy theories...) I reset it to 'Phoenix', and all seems to be well...for now.

Can I ask all you guys who say the problem has fixed itself what you did? I just set the existing repeat (every weekday) alarms to the correct time and...they still went off an hour late (I'm in the UK) this morning (Mon)!!!

Did you delete the existing alarms and set up new ones? Did you power off/power on your phone?

HI All,

I have had the same problem with DST finishing but the recurring alarm deciding that DST is still ongoing.... annoying to say the least.

To answer parish-chaps question, you have to delete your old recurring alarm and set a new one up, after the 7th of course (some fix)..... had a Desire before my iPhone and to get a basic function not to work correctly, does beg the question, have I made the right descision to move away from an Android device.

I have read this morning that a new version of the firmware is due out this month and is suppose to address the problem of the alarm, I hope so as this is not a problem that is going to go away.... i.e. when DST begins next year and finishes, the problem is still going to be there.
