Unwanted alarms after iOS 18 update on my iPhone

I have this ongoing issue with the new IOS update (IOS 18). After downloading the update, I noticed that I have an alarm on my phone, I thought it was just an alarm that I set, but upon checking it wasn't. And that alarm is always set at 5:00 pm every weekday. I tried to ask siri to delete all of my alarms but siri said that I don't have any alarms that has been set manually. I already tried to restart my device, but it wasn't working at all.

I also have this issue and it is an iOS 18.0.1 update problem! I now have a 5:45am alarm going off daily which is pretty irritating as this never happened before the iOS software update….


I’ve seen a lot of issues where alarms don’t go off but this is the opposite.

It's not always the iOS update's fault!  Many things can cause phone problems.  If you tell people you think it's an iOS update, it might make it harder to fix or find a solution for the real issue.


Remember, the right question often leads to the solution! Please look in the right direction.



iOS updates aim to enhance user experience, boost security, and fix bugs rather than disrupt core features. The majority of the issues after updates might stem from underlying, unmentioned factors. Updates won't typically alter personal data but may refine settings or features. Backup before major updates for safety. Review Apple's update details and backup advice for a smooth process.


Kindly consider checking your settings and addressing any device issues before attributing the issue to external factors. This could be a pure coincidence that the iOS update affected the iPhone functions.


Before initiating a standard iOS update, it's advisable to create a backup. Have you completed this step? If yes, proceed with the restoration from the backup.
