Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is facing continued criticism as iPhone users report ongoing alarm issues, even after the release of iOS 18.
What Happened: Earlier this week, a Reddit user bryanlolwut highlighted the problem with a picture showing an alarm set for 10:30 AM that went off at 12:42 AM instead.
Source: RedditApple acknowledged the alarm reliability issues last year following a report by NBC's Today show, promising a fix. However, users are still experiencing problems.
According to complaints, both iOS 17 and iOS 18 users are affected. Some have attempted to disable Apple's Attention Awareness Features, which can lower alarm volume if the iPhone detects a face, but this has not resolved the issue for many.
Apple did not immediately respond to Benzinga's request for comments.

Why It Matters: This isn't the first instance of iPhone users reporting issues with their alarms not functioning properly. Back in 2017, a bug in iOS 11 was said to cause alarms to switch to silent mode.
Reports indicated that while the alarm interface would activate at the scheduled time, the ringer would fail to sound, leaving the iPhone effectively muted. Apple acknowledged the problem and later released a fix.
Similar issues surfaced in 2023 with iOS 17, where some users found their alarms failing to go off, resulting in oversleeping. At the time, several users noted that the problem seemed to be resolved following subsequent software updates.
Price Action: On Thursday, Apple's stock saw a 0.20% increase, but during Friday's pre-market session, the shares dipped by 0.11% to $242.44, according to Benzinga Pro data.

蘋果公司（納斯達克：AAPL）面臨持續的批評，因爲iPhone用戶報告持續的鬧鐘問題，即使在發佈iOS 18之後。
事件進展：本週早些時候，一位Reddit用戶bryanlolwut通過一張圖片突出了這個問題，圖片顯示一個設定在上午10:30的鬧鐘卻在凌晨12:42響起。
來源：Reddit 蘋果在去年承認了鬧鐘可靠性問題，之後NBC的《今日秀》進行了報道，並承諾將進行修復。然而，用戶仍然面臨問題。
根據投訴，iOS 17和iOS 18的用戶都受到影響。一些用戶嘗試禁用蘋果的注意力覺知功能，如果iPhone檢測到面孔，該功能可能會降低鬧鐘音量，但對於許多人來說，這沒有解決問題。
蘋果沒有立即回應Benzinga的評論請求。

爲什麼這很重要：這不是首次有iPhone用戶報告他們的鬧鐘無法正常工作。早在2017年，iOS 11中的一個漏洞被認爲導致鬧鐘切換爲靜音模式。
報告顯示，雖然鬧鐘界面會在預定時間激活，但鈴聲未能響起，導致iPhone實際上處於靜音狀態。蘋果承認了這個問題，並隨後發佈了修復。
類似問題在2023年出現，iOS 17中有些用戶發現他們的鬧鐘未能響起，導致睡過頭。當時，多個用戶注意到在隨後的軟體更新後，問題似乎獲得了解決。
價格變化：週四，蘋果的股價上漲了0.20%，但在週五的盤前交易中，股份下跌了0.11%，至242.44美元，根據Benzinga Pro的數據。
