It can end up badly: You have set an alarm time on your iPhone, but the alarm clock simply stays silent the next morning - and you oversleep. If this problem persists, the following tips can help you to get the iPhone alarm clock ringing again.
iPhone alarm clock doesn't ring - that helps
1. Check the sound settings
First of all, make sure that the alarm volume is loud enough to wake you up. To do this, go to the iPhone settings and tap on " Sounds ". The slider under " Ringtones and advisory tones" should be set so loud that you can actually hear the alarm clock.
2. Alarm tone set?
If everything is right with the volume, you should see whether you have actually set an alarm tone. If you forget to select a tone, the alarm clock will remain silent. So go to your wake-up times and tap " Edit " in the top left . Then select the alarm time in question . If there is " none " next to " tone ", you still have to specify a ringtone. To do this, tap on the appropriate option, select a ringtone and then tap on " Back ". Finally, save your settings via " Save " in the top right corner..
3.

5. Deactivate bedtime
If you have activated the iPhone function " bedtime ", you will only be woken up with the alarm clock set there. If another alarm clock falls during your "bedtime" it will not always start. So deactivate bedtime if you want to be woken up at a different time.

From there, tap the moon . Afterwards, no more incoming messages will sound, but the alarm clock should still ring.
