how to make alarm louder iphone Fix Guide

If your iPhone alarm isn't loud enough, several settings might be preventing it from reaching its full volume potential.

Possible Causes

• Ringer and Alerts volume set too low.
• "Change with Buttons" disabled for alerts.
• Attention Aware Features lowering volume.
• Speaker obstruction (e.g., case, debris).

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Go to Settings > Sounds & Haptics (or Sounds). Under Ringer and Alerts, drag the slider to the far right.
2. Ensure "Change with Buttons" is toggled ON in the same section. This allows your physical volume buttons to control alarm volume.
3. Disable Attention Aware Features: Go to Settings > Face ID & Passcode > turn OFF "Attention Aware Features."
4. Verify your phone case isn't blocking the speaker and ensure the speaker grill is clean.
5. Test with a new alarm sound to confirm the issue isn't specific to one tone.
