How to change the default Alarm sound on your iPad and iPhone

This question is courtesy of Laurie D, who was wanting the change the default alarm sound on his iPhone but could not find the 'Alarm' option in Settings -> Sounds.

Changing of your Alarm's sound is achieved in the 'Clock' app - a great little standard App provided by Apple, that allows you to view World Clocks (great for travelling, or when you have friends or work colleagues overseas), set and manage your Alarms, use the Stopwatch and set a Timer.

The Clock app can be accessed from your Home Screen, or from the Control Centre (accessed by swiping up from the bottom of the screen and choosing the 'Timer' symbol).

The different 'Clock' features are shown along the bottom of the screen.

Tap the Alarm option (second from left) to view your existing alarms, to set new ones or remove those you don't need.

To set a new alarm sound, just change the Sound associated with an existing alarm, or add a new alarm with the required Sound.  

This will cause all future alarms to use that same sound.

Changing an existing alarm

To change an existing alarm, tap Edit at top right to, tap on one of the listed alarm times, tap on Sound, and choose the new Alarm sound

Adding a new alarm

To add a new alarm, tap on the + symbol at top right, then set the Alarm time and the Sound.  

​You can also give your alarm a label, set it to repeat on certain days, and also set whether the 'snooze' function is enabled for that alarm.

The easiest way to add or remove an alarm is using Siri

Of course, you can also set new alarms using Siri.  

​Just say 'Set an alarm for 10am', and Siri will  add an alarm for 10am either today or tomorrow (depending on whether it is before or after 10am) and set the Alarm sound to be that which you last set.

You can also say 'Set an Alarm for 6:30am each weekday'.

Then, to delete that alarm, say 'Delete my 6:30 alarm'.  Or 'Delete all alarms' to get rid of all of them.

Here's a handy app for when you travel - especially by train

Picture
Today's Apps Gone Free features an app that I just had to download for upcoming train trips.

It's called WayKup, and it is designed to sound an alarm when you get close you your location.  Just tell it where you are going, and the distance at which you want to be woken.

That way, you can happily snooze, all while knowing that your trusty iPhone will ensure that you don't miss your stop.

Here is the link to App in the the AppStore, should you need a wake up alarm as well!
