I can understand your frustration, an alarm is a basic function that you are depending on. However my experience does not match yours. I’ve been using the alarm on my phone and Apple Watch for years without issue. It’s failed to wake me up sometimes, but that’s on me.

I suggest setting an alarm during the daytime when you are normally awake so that you can observe what is (or isn’t) happening. Keep track if the alarm is going off or not and note what conditions you think might be at play to see if you can develop any sort of pattern.

Correct. It could be all 4 alarms even that ive set. I set it the evening before, confirm it is on and a tone is selected, all that. I wake up, the "alarm" is going off but no noise, and the only reason i say it is going off is that on screen it is saying so "gives that alarm going off do you want to snooze it " screen. No noise, and not even vibrating i dont believe even.

So when you say sleep focus, what do you mean you use a manual one? You have a DND type of sleep focus on during the evening and is that tied to the alarm?

i was converted by an 11. it's still a wonderful phone but i wanted the pro model so i upgraded to the 14 pro. while it's a massive upgrade, the overall experience is just as good, minus the zoom lens and a few things when the lidar comes in handy. everything on the iphones just works. i always had some kind of problem with android no matter what phone i got. i just really enjoy the apple eco system now.
