Alarm froze up and no alarm sound

In December 2024, I purchased a new iPhone 16 Pro. Unfortunately, the device experienced a serious malfunction — the alarm failed to work, and the phone froze. As a result, I missed my flight, and the entire trip was canceled.




At the same time, my cousin, who uses an iPhone XS with five alarms set, experienced the exact same issue — none of the alarms worked, and his phone also froze.




This is a critical software or device failure that caused us direct financial damage:





  • Flight tickets


  • Train tickets


  • Canceled vacation and associated costs





We hereby request full compensation for the incurred expenses and expect a prompt resolution. Please inform us how Apple intends to resolve this situation and compensate us for the losses caused.




We are ready to provide supporting documents, tickets, and invoices as proof.

iPhone 16 Pro, iOS 18
