Holy moly Simon. that's quite the noise to get you to wake up. I guess I don't have that problem. My neighbour just has to fart in the middle of the night and I'll wake up. No need for multiple or loud alarms. Later... Tim Kilburn Jamf Certified Tech Apple Teacher (with Swift Playgrounds

Petrus, I don't believe so. Most of the alarms that are set go right through Do Not Disturb and even when you have the iPhone silenced with the hardware switch above the physical volume buttons. It's an idea though and I may just need to test it to be sure. Later... Tim Kilburn Jamf
