iPhone 12 iPhone creating random alarms

[Mildredop]

I'm new to iPhone after yeards of Android and I'm still getting used to some "quirks".

Last night, as I went to bed, my alarm went off at 22:58. I didn't create that alarm. There was also one set for 11:32 and 11:38.

I've only ever set one alarm which I then edit if I want to change the time, plus I only ever set an alarm for on the hour or half past, never 58, 32 or 38 minutes past. I didn't create the new alarms so how did they appear? At the moment I see three options:

1. I did it in my sleep
2. It's an iOS bug of some sort
3. My cat did it.

Is there a bug? Can apps create alarms?

Sometimes you might have randomly created it and they are false alarms so you can just turn them off.

If your iPhone is set to military time than the iPhone may (like 50%) of the time set up the alarm on the wrong time. When I’ve added alarms at 1pm for getting stuff done, I woke up at 1am.

Another culprit could be your sleep schedule. Apple’s built in sleep helper could be at to a random time causing you to wake up at all hours of the night - just theory- it’s never done that to me.

Hope this helps a little!
