Warning on Reddit, many users said their iPhones were not ringing the alarm as set and causing them to oversleep. The unknown bug appears to affect both new and old iPhone models such as the iPhone XR, 11, and 15.
Some people noted that they encountered the issue after installing the iOS 17 update, while others said it happened after installing the iOS 17.2 update. On the other hand, many users reported experiencing the alarm issue on their iPhones, although it was fixed in subsequent software updates. Some Redditors said that the issue has been present for years on iPhones running older versions of iOS.
To avoid this phenomenon, members have instructed to turn off the Attention Aware feature on iPhone, which is a feature that helps the device recognize whether the user is paying attention to the device or not to perform actions such as reducing the alert volume.
iOS 17 version is noted to have caused many strange errors on iPhone
Other workarounds include disabling Standby mode, deleting and reinstalling the clock app, and deleting some alarms if there are too many set in a short period of time. Apple has not officially announced the issue, so it is unclear whether this is a bug or a feature that is affecting the way alarms are set on the iPhone.
This year's iOS 17 update has been plagued with bugs. Earlier this month, there were reports of a bug that triggered the app switcher while typing on the keyboard. Previously, the iPhone 15 Pro had an issue with overheating while charging, which was fixed in the iOS 17.0.2 update.
The NFC chips in the iPhone 15 were reportedly damaged after using wireless charging from BMW and Toyota Supra vehicles. Apple acknowledged the issue and released an iOS 17.1.1 update last month to address the issue. The update also fixed a bug where the Weather app's lock screen widget was displaying incorrect weather.
