A number of Apple customers complained on Reddit about problems with the alarm clock for their iPhone 15 devices, and confirmed that it does not work often.
iPhone 15 alarm malfunction problem, adding an advertisement
According to experts, the problem appears to be due to a little-known feature in iOS 17 called “Attention Features,” which interferes with the Watch app’s alerts.
To make sure the alarm is turned on, all you have to do is turn off “Attention Features” in your iPhone settings.
This feature can also be found in two places, one of which is the “Face Recognition and Attention” feature option, and the other is located under the “Voice Control” subsection in the Accessibility settings.
Many solutions to solve the iPhone alarm problem
A number of iPhone users have also suggested several other solutions if turning off Attention Features doesn’t work, including turning off standby mode on newer iPhones. This feature, added to iOS 17, turns your phone into a smart display while charging. When the phone is plugged in and turned on its side, the screen will display a customizable interface that usually includes a clock.
To deactivate standby mode, go to Settings and go to the standby menu. From there, you can simply turn off the standby feature and ensure that the alarms go off at the specified time, according to what the British newspaper Daily Mail reported.
