Don't let this technical issue ruin your day.
If you rely on your iPhone as an alarm clock, you are hardly alone ― but you should be aware of a potential issue that could lead to oversleeping, missed appointments or tardiness.
Over the past month, several iPhone users on TikTok have shared their experience with an apparent bug that impacts the device’s alarm function, with a few of the videos going viral on the platform. Basically, some are claiming that their alarms are either failing to activate or are going off with no sound.
“I’ve been using the iPhone alarm for 10 years ― never had an issue. Well, two days ago I woke up an hour and a half late for work to a phone call from my boss saying, ‘Hey, you coming in today?’” TikTok user @brunson_state shared on the app.
“If your alarms have not been going off and you have an iPhone and you think you have been sleeping through them, you are not in the wrong,” said Alexie Armour, another user, who added that the alarm problem caused her to miss her airport transportation and subsequently have to pay $500 to park her car at the airport.
The comments section for both videos is filled with responses from people who’ve had similar experiences and thought their brains were malfunctioning; “I THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY” is a common comment.
