Unable to edit an alarm from control center while iPhone is locked

I used to be able to edit an alarm from control center while my phone was locked. Now I can’t. Is this a setting that I can’t find?

To create an alarm, tap the Alarm icon in the control center and select 'Create Alarm.' If you don't want to save the new alarm, tap 'Cancel.' You can also edit previously created alarms now.

Thanks, but that is not the problem. My old phone, and everyone else’s that I have tried it on, you can edit alarms while locked. I cannot. I use alarms a lot and it is annoying to have to unlock every time I need to edit them
