We all expected the problem with iPhone alarms It was solved with the arrival of iOS 4.2, however, since yesterday it seems that everything has returned to normal and the alarms sound again on time. In addition, a statement by Apple tells us that from November 7 we can use our alarms with total normality.
To resolve this behavior for existing alarms, set the repeat interval to Never. You will need to reset these alarms for each day you need them.
After November 7th, 2010, you can set your alarms to repeat again.
Did your alarm go off on time this morning? On the Internet you can see cases of people who no longer have the problem, others who continue to ring an hour late or even people who have never had any problem with the alarms.

Is it a coincidence that the problem is solved on the day that the time changed in the US?
Regards!!
has not been fixed.
so that we understand each other ... apparently now it is working well but in 6 months, with the ios 4.1 there will be another week of jet lag.
the problem is that when updating the time, the code in charge of cyclical alarms (only occurs with cyclical ones) internally carries the time setting for the US zone.
In the US they have not had this problem but in the rest of the world they have, and when the time change in the US is reached, it has stayed as it should.
The problem is that ios 4.1 still has that bug. Now we do not see it but those who in 6 months still have this ios, will see the problem again for a week, this time in reverse
our alarms go off an hour late or an hour early, apple think different
Another who read yesterday that the problem was already solved, and this morning he has verified that it does not ... zzzZZZ
I have a 3g and a 3gs, the alarms sounded an hour later ... so the problem continues
It has not been solved for me either.
Well, I had the problem because I was forced to restore on Saturday to 4.1 and as I had an alarm programmed for the days of the day I checked it x in case and indeed I had the problem. What I did was delete the programmed alarm entirely. I programmed it again and it worked well for me today. Anyway, it is assumed that 4.2 is very very close and that it is completely solved, so I do not see the problem anywhere. Until then, those who still suffer from the problem, by setting that daily alarm one hour before the hour it should actually be, they also have it solved. The bitch has been the ones that I catch off guard, but once it has been known, I think that it is not so bad.
Still not working.
To me precisely this morning it has NOT sounded to me, fortunately I have woken up alone, but if I had not been late for work. I have Iphone4 with 4.1 and I deleted all the alarms and then put them back as several people have written,
Apparently it worked when I did a test, but then NOT.
I no longer trust myself, and I put another alarm clock. What a shit Apple.
It has not worked for me this morning, but now I have done a test creating a new daily alarm and it has warned at the time.
I'm going to delete the old alarm clock and create a new one, although just in case I'll put a non-snooze at the same time.
Let's see, to clarify the matter that it works for some and not others ...
DOES NOT WORK: create a schedule that repeats at least one day a week, but not every day of the week. Solution: Create the alarm one hour before we have to wake up.
IT WORKS: create an alarm that repeats every day of the week, or does not repeat itself.
If you do a test, always do it with the same repetition ... 😉
Salu2
I am from Mexico and I have that problem, they cannot tell me that the problem was fixed, what I do is set my alarm one hour apart. So expensive that the equipment comes out and in such a simple application it is wrong.
It failed me this morning. It rang an hour later (and it had not very pleasant consequences).
I live in the USA and today my ipod touch alarm failed me and rang an hour late, the night before I had reconfigured it just in case but still it was delayed
I have done a test right now with my iPhone4 Ios 4.1 and it has sounded correctly having put it to repeat from Monday to Friday.
It seems that it has been solved ... but the problem will recur with the next time change.
This morning my iphone rang again 1 hour later.
We can consider this Apple's botch of the year. Good grief, how important a mobile alarm is for millions of people.
ami has sounded to me at the correct time !!! x in case this night I will leave it an hour before to prove that it is safe
Tried! Right now it works 🙂
Hopefully tomorrow it works too.
Now it works for me, I deleted the old one which only worked if I put it 1 hour before and I put a new one from Monday to Friday, this is correct.
From Andorra and Iphone 4, free without operator.
Nothing, everything remains the same, the alarm continues to malfunction
To me the bastard ... he woke me up an hour earlier this morning ... since I delayed it an hour last week to make it sound correctly ...
If the thing is to touch the nose ... at least it seems fixed ...
Well, mine continues to work on its own terms, that is, badly. I have an Iphone 4 and an alarm set from Monday to Friday at 7 in the morning and at 5 in the afternoon, and since it left me lying, I set an alarm an hour before in both cases ... total, now it sounds twice in Each alarm and when it is sounding I do not know if it is the one that touches or the control one, because in both cases it catches me half asleep ... ainssssss
IT WORKS!!! I have restored it and the alarm works perfectly, I don't know if for the restoration or I don't know, but IT WORKS at the time I put it! 😀
Today I know that it worked well, I had it scheduled an hour before. To wake up at the time and today I don't know why. It woke me up at 5:50 am instead of 6:50, which was how I woke up with the failure.
This afternoon I will carry out tests, so as not to be late for work tomorrow.
All the best
If that works on my iPhone 4 ... and I shit everything because it just stole an entire hour of sleep since I had it at 6:30 so that I woke up at 7:30 ... the strangest thing has been that since I was produced the failure I have not synchronized or updated ... so ... I see that they have no intention of having my authorization these from Apple to bustle with my phone ...
Now, finally, after I don't know how many attempts, it works for me.
Iphone 4 with iOS 4.2.1, venezuela time zone. Repetitive alarms sound 30min before. Any solution?. Thanks
