New Year Alarm Glitches Hit The iPhone


The change to daylight savings resulted in major alarm problems for many iPhone owners. The update release of iOS was supposed to have fixed those problems, but it seems the switch to a new year has resulted in more alarm dramas.

Apple’s support forum is filled with posters complaining about how their iPhone alarms stopped functioning after the New Year rolled in. According to 9 To 5 Mac, the issue doesn’t happen with recurring alarms, and stops being a problem after January 3. Given the problems that the daylight saving issue created, you’d have thought that Apple would pay more attention to its alarm-generating code.
