Update 17 Alarm too loud on lowest setting

Since the recent 17 update. The lowest volume setting on the alarm app is too loud. While in the app I adjust the volume, as always, and it’s now the lowest setting is too loud. Is there a way to make the lowest setting quieter?


iPhone 14, iOS 17

Perhaps you are replying to someone else. No flickering here. I just want to lower the volume for my alarm. I've used the Iphone alarm for several years and after the last update the lowest setting is too loud. You sent me a canned response, which is not helpful. I will check other settings to see if I can lower the alarm volume. Suggesting it must be a prior underlying issue is a cop out. Very disappointing response and a waste of time.

Updating iOS on your iPhone should typically not alter the fundamental functionality of the device. It's possible that there were underlying issues before this update, which you might not have been aware of previously or might not have noticed.


In general, iOS updates are designed to enhance the user experience, improve security, and fix bugs, rather than introducing major disruptions to core features. The reported issue of the screen flickering and displaying a white screen after an update is likely caused by factors that are not explicitly mentioned in your post.


iOS updates primarily focus on improving system performance, introducing new features, fixing bugs, and enhancing security. They are designed to preserve your personal data, settings, and information intact.


During an iOS update, your device's operating system is upgraded, but your personal data, such as contacts, photos, messages, and other information, should remain unchanged. However, it's always a good practice to perform a backup of your device before any major update to ensure that your data is safely stored.


It's important to note that while an iOS update itself should not alter personal details, it's possible that certain features or settings may be adjusted or improved with the update. In such cases, you may need to review and adjust specific settings to match your preferences after the update.


Always make sure to read and understand the update details provided by Apple before proceeding with an iOS update, and follow best practices such as backing up your device to minimize any potential risks or complications.
