00:00Attention iPhone users, if you rely on your smartphone's alarm system to wake you up in the morning or alert you when it's time to do anything, listen up.
00:10iOS users online have reported that due to a glitch in our phones, their alarms have been going off silently, causing them to miss work or flights.
00:19HuffPost reports over the past month, several iPhone users on TikTok have shared their experience with the apparent bug that impacts the device's alarm function, with a few of the videos going viral on the platform.
00:34Basically, some are claiming that their alarms are either failing to activate or are going off with no sound.
00:42According to TechTimes, the problem may be linked to the iPhone's attention awareness feature.
00:48This function will adjust the display brightness when the device senses it is being looked at, potentially interfering with other functionalities, including the alarm sound.
01:00Basically, it thinks you're looking at it when you're not.
01:03So, how do we fix this?
01:06Go to your Settings app, from there navigate to Accessibility Options, and select Accessibility again to see more options.
01:15After that, you tap Face ID and Attention, where you can adjust some of your phone's sensory attributes and disable attention-aware features.
01:27And there you have it.
01:28You'll never be late to work again.
