The iPhone’s alarm is a great way to wake up in the morning, but did you know that you can also use it to remind you of important tasks throughout the day? Here’s how:
- To set an alarm on your iPhone, open the Clock app and tap the Alarm tab. Then, tap the + button in the top-right corner to add a new alarm.
- Give your alarm a name, and then set the time and frequency that you want it to go off. You can also tap the Sound button to choose a custom sound for your alarm, or the Snooze button to have it repeat at regular intervals.
- Once you’ve saved your alarm, it will appear in the list on the Alarm tab. To edit an alarm, tap it in the list and make your changes. To delete an alarm, swipe left on it and tap Delete.
- You can also use the iPhone’s built-in Reminders app to set alarms for specific tasks or events. Just open the app and tap the + button to add a new reminder. Then, tap the Alarm button and set the time and frequency for your reminder.

There are a few things that could be causing your alarm to not go off:
