pulsestacks April 30th report, in recent weeks, many iPhone users have taken to social media to report encountering issues with their phone alarms not ringing, Apple has confirmed they are aware of the problem and are working on a fix.
Apple confirmed to The Wall Street Journal today that they are aware of the issue, acknowledging a problem causing some iPhone alarms not to sound and are working on a fix.
Pulsestacks noted that some users have found that this issue may be related to the iPhone's "Attention Awareness" feature. This feature is designed to lower notification volume when the user is looking at the phone. Users speculate that the "Attention Awareness" feature mistakenly detects the user's attention, lowering the alarm volume even when the iPhone user is asleep. However, Apple has not confirmed if this is the exact cause of the issue.
To disable the "Attention Awareness" feature, you can open the "Settings" app, then go to "Face ID & Passcode" and turn off the "Attention Awareness" feature.
