How to Fix If Alarm is Not Work­ing on Android Devices

The fixes are pretty simple to carry out. Here we go.

Check for Alarm Volume

This is one of the most common mistakes that smartphone users do. They set the device in silence and then wonder why Alarm is not sounding. So, you have to manually check and set what amount of alarm volume can be better for you so that you actually hear it. To tweak that,

• go to Settings > Sounds and Vibration [It may be only Sounds in some devices]
• Under that, you will see volume controllers for Ringtone, Media files, and Alarm.
  
• Set the Alarm volume as per your sonic comfort. But make sure you hear it when it goes off else you will keep sleeping.

This means it will be the same neat app when you first unboxed your device and started using it. So, if there are any bugs in the previously installed version, those will be removed.
