New iOS 11 bug shuns iPhone's alarms
Apple’s iOS 11 is slowly turning out to be the buggiest OP update, with more and more issues emerging each passing day. The most recent problem that users are facing in iOS cause the device’s alarm to be switched to silent mode, with several users confirming the issue.
What actually happens is that despite the alarm UI being triggered at the configured time, the ringer doesn’t go off and the screen stays in mute mode.
Considering the number of reports posted online, this seems to be a common bug hit by iOS 11 devices and no patch has been pushed just yet. It happens in the case of both alarms set with the standard feature on iPhones and with Bedtime mode, also some users reported that a complete restore of the device did the trick and everything started working like a charm.
However, not everyone is hit with this bug, and it’s been confirmed on the iPhone 7 and newer, including the iPhone X.
The company is yet to acknowledge the bug and is most likely to release a software fix with the next update hopefully.
