Contact Clock Support

The clock is a simply concept, and there are so many good features that Apple has on it, but it’s honestly outweighed by the bad, most of their alarms are extremely quiet, like the default for instance, and even at full volume, I’ve slept through it more times than I have fingers (wouldn’t be surprised if it was more than my toes too) so naturally to fix this, I just was going to change the alarm sound, well that’s simply enough in its on, but you can’t set one as a default, so each and every single alarm you set, you have to change the alarm sound. Which might sound just slightly tedious at first, but if you’re like me, you’d probably need alarms for more than just waking up, and even if you didn’t, you probably use more than one alarm a day. So picture this, you have your alarm to wake up, your alarm for when you need to get going soon, and one to know when to leave. With each one, you have to go through meticulously long set of steps just to change the song. And god forbid you want one that’s different then the weird assortment of jingles and jangles Apple has prepared for you. I had to download four different apps, and wait for downloading for almost an entire day just to get a Steven universe song as my alarm sound.

Wow iOS 17 totally ruined the timer portion of this app! First off all, allow us to set a default alarm sound when the timer goes off instead of forcing it to default to the “radial” tone when setting a timer with Siri. The radial tone is not loud enough and setting timers is a common task I have Siri do. Super annoying. Second, please give us the option to disable the timer history. I have absolutely no use for this and it just clutters the page with extra stuff I have to read through to make sure I’m clicking the right thing. I literally clear the history everytime I set a timer now to clear the screen up, and this has become a super annoying task. Maybe these features are helpful to some people, but you could easily give us the option to set it up either way. Third, when perusing the various alarm sounds list and selecting your desired sound, the phone plays the alert at full volume without any obvious way to make the sound stop. This is annoying to others in your vicinity. Maybe set it up so that it doesn’t play a sound sample unless you ask it to. Just some suggestions. The previous version worked perfect and had the Apple simplicity to it.

For months now the Clock app that comes standard in the iPhone has been glitching for me which is causing me to wake up late for work. I have my alarm set for 5:30am which goes off, but like many other people, it takes me a little longer to wake up than just one alarm so I snooze until around 6:30. I hit the snooze after the first initial alarm goes off but then nothing else happens after the 9 minute snooze. It shows that it’s going off but no sounds or alerts are made. I’ve done everything I could to try and remedy this. I’ve tried deleting the alarm and making a new one but to no avail. I’ve even taken my phone to the Apple store and they seemed to have fixed it but it did nothing. If you are reading this review and are having similar issues, you’re not the only one. Apple needs to update and completely overhaul this app. I was honestly surprised and somewhat relieved to find out from all the other poor reviews that I’m not the only one suffering from this. This does not look good coming from Apple who expects us to pay top dollar for a product that can’t deliver properly. It’s truly a shame. Hopefully they will fix this sooner than later.
