Sunday is supposed to be a relaxing rest day, but for office workers who have just spent the Qingming holiday, it is a "working day" that needs to be extra vigilant.
That's right, due to the holiday, this Sunday is normal to work, but iPhone users have encountered a disturbing problem - the alarm clock does not go off, causing many people to be late for work.
The topic of "iPhone alarm clock will not recognize the holiday" quickly appeared on the hot search, which sparked a heated discussion among the majority of netizens. It turns out that the iPhone's alarm clock repeat function has certain limitations in holiday settings, it cannot intelligently select legal holidays, and users can only set them in the 7 days from Monday to Sunday.
This means that when it comes to a weekend, the system can't automatically recognize it and treat it as a working day, which leads to the embarrassing situation that some iPhone users are late because the alarm clock is not ringing.
Xiao Zhang was one of the victims. He used to set a fixed alarm time from Monday to Friday, however, this Sunday he missed work because the alarm did not go off.
Xiao Zhang said helplessly: "I originally thought that the alarm clock function of the iPhone was very smart, but I didn't expect it to be unable to even recognize the holiday, which caused me to be late." ”
In contrast, the performance of Android phones and the HarmonyOS system is eye-catching. They can be set autonomously according to statutory holidays, ensuring that the alarm clock also rings on time during holidays.
Many Android phone users have posted on social platforms to remind iPhone users to pay attention to setting alarm clocks, so as not to be late for work due to the lack of holiday alarm clock function on Apple phones.
Some netizens said: How good it is to have a "statutory weekday alarm clock" and "statutory holiday alarm clock" options like domestic mobile phones. Don't worry about being late on weekdays that need to be off, and don't be afraid of being woken up by a good lazy nap during the holiday.
In response to this question, Apple's customer service also responded. They said that the iPhone alarm clock needs to be manually added, and there is currently no way to automatically identify which day of the holiday is.
However, they also said that they will record and give feedback on this problem, and if there is more feedback, relevant improvements may be made in the future.
