Just knowing how many people in the planet rely on their alarms for so many things it's definitely the case that at least innocent 1 person has been fired because of this bug preventing an alarm from waking them up for work (probably hundreds or more)
Especially young people with strict policies around hours, an alarm not functioning as expected can literally be the difference between living paycheck to paycheck and losing their income entirely.

Maybe they should't spend a month worth of income on an iPhone then. /s

If you have face id and attention awareness enabled, the alarm will be silenced but still technically be going off if the phone thinks you looked at it.
Not sure if it's related to this TFA bug, but it's aggravating, to put it nicely.

I just accepted it. Sad that’s just how things are nowadays.
