Alarm on my iphone xs not adjusting to the sound of the phone

So a couple of days now i cant figure out why my alarm wont work properly, i kept adjusting the ringer sound and it still will only play the alarm very quietly, it wouldnt even wake me up, i had an iphone 7 before and all was good and with the new phone i just cant figure out why this is happening.

Greetings meidute,

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! I understand the alarm volume isn't changing when you adjust the volume on your iPhone.

Change with Buttons would need to be enabled if you're attempting to change the ringer volume with the Volume buttons on your iPhone, as described in the following guide: How to set and manage alarms on your iPhone

Set the alarm's volume

Tap Settings > Sounds & Haptics. Under Ringers And Alerts, drag the slider left or right. As you drag, an alert will play, so you can hear how the volume changes. Using the Volume buttons on the side of your iPhone won't change the alarm's volume unless you turn on Change with Buttons.


Let me know how the provided suggestion works for you.

Kind regards.
