Q: iOS 10 Alarm Clock?

With the new update, the alarm clock on my phone no longer functions. No matter what time I set the alarm to, if I exit out of the app or keep it open watching it, it won't go off. As well as with the timer. I've watched the timer count down and then it just exits back to the screen to set the timer, without an alarm of any type going off. Also, if I set the timer, and then attempt to turn on an alarm, it will turn the timer off completely.

iPhone 6, iOS 10.0.2

    Hello JBake0602,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 

    I understand from your post that after updating to iOS 10.0.2, your alarm clock is no longer going off and neither is the timer. When you open the Clock app and tap Timer, what does it say next to When Timer Ends? If it says Stop Playing, you will want to tap Stop Playing and change the sounds to another of the sounds listed. When you create an alarm, make sure the Sound is not set to None. If it is tap None and choose one of the other sounds in the list.

    Best Regards.
