According to foreign media sources, in response to the recent feedback from some iPhone users that the alarm clock cannot go off, Apple issued an official statement confirming that a software bug is the root cause of the phenomenon. The company said it was "aware of an issue that was causing some iPhone alarms to not play the expected sound" and was "urgently working on a solution."
Previously, users on TikTok and other social platforms complained that their iPhone alarms did not ring as scheduled, resulting in missing important schedules. Apple's statement doesn't elaborate on the specific cause of the error or why it only affects some users, but the company promises to work hard to fix the issue.
This is not the first time this type of alarm clock has glitched, and similar problems have occurred in the iOS system in the past. For example, in 2010 there was an alarm clock bug caused by a daylight saving time adjustment, and two days before the new year in 2011, the alarm clock suddenly stopped working. However, it is unclear whether this issue is directly related to the previous situation.
The adjustment for daylight saving time in 2024 was completed as early as mid-March, so it is difficult to determine whether the current issue is related to it. Although some users are not affected, Apple still advises all users to remain vigilant and keep an eye out for the official release of the fix. For those users affected by a faulty alarm clock, Apple said it was deeply sorry and promised to roll out a fix as soon as possible.
