Setting an alarm on your iPhone helps you to get up on time in the morning or to remember important information at the right time. If you want to know how to set an alarm on your iPhone, just follow the simple steps below.

To step

1. Turn on your iPhone. You do this by pressing and holding the button on the top of the phone.
2. Open the clock app. You will find these in the middle of the apps on your first screen.
3. Tap the "Alarm Clock" tab at the bottom of your screen. It's the second from the left.
4. Press the "+" sign. You will find this at the top right of your screen.
5. Set your alarm. Scroll through the hours and minutes to set what time your alarm should go off. Depending on your clock settings, select "AM" or "PM" to set whether your alarm should go off in the morning (am) or during the day (pm). (If your general phone settings are set to 24-hour format, you do not need to choose this now).
   • Click on "Repeat" if you want your alarm to go off on multiple days. This option can be found above the alarm clock. Choose whether you want your alarm to go off "every Sunday", "every Monday" or even every day. Click on the days you want your alarm to go off and check if a check mark appears at the end of the appropriate line (s).
   • If you want to set two different alarms, for example an alarm that rings on the weekend and an alarm for weekdays, then you have to go through these steps twice.
6. Set your preferences. Once you've set your wake-up time, you can set the other preferences above. With these preferences you control the sound of your alarm, or you can snooze and give your alarm a name. You do this as follows:
   • Click on "sound". Use this option to control the sound of your alarm clock. You can also download a ringtone from the iTunes Store and sync it to your phone.
   • Select the "Snooze" option. If you want a snooze function on your alarm clock, turn this function "on".
   • Select a label. If you want to give your alarm a name, choose this option and enter your message. This option is useful if you want to remind yourself to do something.
7. Press "Save". This will save your settings.
8. Check your alarm clock. Reopen the app to make sure you have set the time correctly and set the alarm.

Tips

• If you ever want to turn your alarm on or off, open the clock app and click the "alarm clock" tab.
• Don't press the clock app for too long. Doing so will switch your iPhone to a mode where you can delete apps. You will find yourself in this mode when all the apps start to shake. If this happens, click on the round button below your screen or the button on top of your phone.
• Only use your fingers or a special pen for the touch screen screen.
• If you have set an alarm, you will see a clock symbol on your screen. It's in the top right corner next to the battery. If it is not there, you have not set an alarm.
