- anon373839 2y agoI haven’t tested this in a while, but as at least until a couple of years ago, an incoming phone call would permanently dismiss an alarm on iOS.
- rootsudo 2y agoStill does. Alarm can also interrupt and crash Spotify. Alarm can also temporarily lock iPhone. I just accepted it. Sad that’s just how things are nowadays.
- yungtriggz 2y agowow that's crazy. feel like my biggest problem still is updating automatically overnight
- falcolas 2y agoIf you have face id and attention awareness enabled, the alarm will be silenced but still technically be going off if the phone thinks you looked at it. Not sure if it's related to this TFA bug, but it's aggravating, to put it nicely.
- willio58 2y agoJust knowing how many people in the planet rely on their alarms for so many things it's definitely the case that at least innocent 1 person has been fired because of this bug preventing an alarm from waking them up for work (probably hundreds or more) Especially young people with strict policies around hours, an alarm not functioning as expected can literally be the difference between living paycheck to paycheck and losing their income entirely.
- millzlane 2y agoThanks for thinking of the little guy.

- brokenmachine 2y agoThe state of modern tech... a company with a market cap of 2.67 trillion cannot make a working alarm clock.
- gladwindos 2y agoI’ve got the opposite problem where my alarm goes off every Wednesday at 8:30 and I have no idea how to turn it off…
