Alarm not working after ios17 update

I’ve been using the same alarms for years, it remained the same after the update. since the update, my alarms set at the 5am hour doesn’t go off, only the ones after 6am. I’ve tried turning my sleep mode off, I’ve tried turning off that feature where it’ll lower the volume once it recognizes that I’ve “seen” it. I thought maybe I’ve been really tired this whole week so I changed it to a super annoying, loud alarm and still nothing. It’s been happening all week. Idk how to fix it

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 17

Had the same problem. Got late at my job 2 days in a row and didn’t know why until I figured out alarms are not working properly after IOS 17 update. Thanks Apple.

FOUND THE SOLUTION!! It's the "attention aware features" toggle under the face ID and attention setting!! Toggle it off and your alarms will not go silent anymore.


This was happening to me also where my alarm was going off some mornings with no sound. I did my own testing and the alarm would go off until my iphone detected motion in front of the phone and it would go silent but still needed to be turned off. I toggled the attention aware feature off and my alarms stay full volume and don't go silent with detected motion in front of the screen.
