Hi Begtech,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.


It sounds like the volume of your alarms and timers are too low.


We're happy to assist.


We recommend checking out the steps in the sections titled "How to change the alarm's volume" and "If the alarm volume is too low or quiet" from the article here: How to set and change alarms on your iPhone - Apple Support


How to change the alarm's volume
1) Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics.
2) Under Ringtone and Alert Volume, drag the slider left or right to set the volume. As you drag, an alert will play, so you can hear how the volume changes.
3) Turn on Change with Buttons to use the volume buttons on your device to change the alarm volume.

Learn what to do if the alarm volume is too low or quiet.


If the alarm volume is too low or quiet
Do Not Disturb and the Ring/Silent switch don't affect the alarm sound. If you set your Ring/Silent switch to Silent or turn on Do Not Disturb, the alarm still sounds.

If you have an alarm that doesn't sound or is too quiet, or if your iPhone only vibrates, check the following:

*Set the volume on your iPhone. If your alarm volume is too low or too loud, press the volume up or volume down button to adjust it. You can also go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics and drag the slider under Ringtone and Alert Volume.

*If your alarm only vibrates, make sure that your alarm sound isn't set to None. Open the Clock app, tap the Alarm tab, then tap Edit. Tap the alarm, then tap Sound and choose a Sound.

*If you connect headphones to your iPhone, the alarm plays at a set volume through the built-in speakers on your iPhone as well as wired and wireless headphones.

Manually adjusting the time on your iPhone in Settings to change app behavior, like game timers, isn't recommended and can affect alarms.


We’re recommending the steps above because they directly address the issue you initially posted about: the volume of your timers and alarms is too low.


Should the issue continue, follow up with the steps in this article: Adjust the volume on iPhone - Apple Support


Please let us know the outcome after giving the above steps a try.


Cheers!
