Public Service Announcement - Clock Change on 03/13

[Orion126]

Hopefully Apple has fixed the alarm issues but if they haven't make sure you set a separate (not on iPhone) alarm if you need to wake up for something important on Sunday.

Never hurts to be prepared

I'm curious, do you have any more explanation for this?

Thanks!

Thanks!

In the past, alarms on the iPhone have had problems with alarms not recognizing Daylight Savings Time switches. I remember both Europe and America having issues. "Spring Forward" is this Sunday, so don't be late/early to your morning activities ;-)

Ahh!! I guess it snuck up on me and I didn't enough notice it was Daylight Savings!

Thanks again

Since it's been five months or so since this cropped up the first time, it will be interesting to see if Apple finally got it fixed.

Welp...my alarm didn't work and it seems that putting a repeating alarm doesn't make it work. I'm still on 4.1 jailbroken. Will update to 4.3 once a JB has been released and hopefully that fixes the issue.

My phone automatically changed the time and my alarms worked perfectly yesterday and today!

My alarm worked this morning but actually woke me up an hour early this time.
Weird, at least I wasnt late but again problems with daylight savings?
How hard is it Apple?

applejuiced, have you had anymore problems with you alarm going off earl?? a couple friends of mine are having an issue where their alarms keep going off an out early, even after turning the phone on and off again...

I am having this issue as well and would like suggestions on how to fix it. My time changes automatically but my alarms went off an hour early yesterday and today. I removed all alarms and set new ones but any that were set to repeat on weekdays still go off an hour early.

Yes, it did it again this morning.
I ended up putting it on for 8:00 so it went off at 7:00am cause when it was setup for 7 it went off at 6.
Weird bug, I'm still on firmware 4.1 btw.

I had no problems with mine.

Lucky
Maybe its because Im still on 4.1?
I changed it to an hour later to wake me up on time from now on.
Gotta love these workarounds for something as basic as an alarm though
